Cartesian Grid - Direction from Coordinates (Angle) (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on determining the directional movement between two points on a Cartesian grid, expressed in terms of angle or basic directional terms (such as "right," "up," "left," "down"). Each problem provides two sets of coordinates and asks learners to identify the correct vector direction from point A to point B. This skill is foundational for understanding spatial relationships and vector movements in a two-dimensional space, which is a critical concept in geometry and physics.
