The document compares the locations of cars in two pictures, highlighting that they are not in the same location based on reference points. It discusses the concept of position in relation to a reference point using various scenarios involving movement, such as a girl walking to a store or a dog moving from a coconut tree. Additionally, it includes questions about identifying reference points and filling in blanks related to the change in position of objects.

2. Compare the location ofthe cars in
picture A and in picture B. Are they on
the same location?

3. If you would tell the position of the car from
the pictures above, you may say that on
picture A “The car is in front of the house.”
While in picture B, “The car is on the right
side of the house.” They are not on the same
location. The position of an object or place is
the location. Thus, position describes an
object’s distance and direction from a
reference point.

5. What is the distance travelled by the dog from
the coconut tree?
The illustration above shows the direction and
how far the dog walks in relation to a coconut
tree. The dog is in motion when we compared it
to the coconut tree and the last location where
the dog stopped.
The coconut tree serves as the reference point. A
reference point is the place where the observer is
or the point of origin of something (Baylon, 2013)
