Cartesian Grid - Direction from Coordinates (Angle) (Level 2)

This math topic focuses on determining the direction and distance between two points on a Cartesian grid using coordinates. It practices identifying the relative movements (right, left, up, down) and calculating the change in position across the x-axis (horizontal) and y-axis (vertical). This involves interpreting coordinates, understanding positive and negative values, and applying these concepts to find the right combination of horizontal and vertical shifts between two given points.
