- Measuring the force used in each tennis motion using Newton’s Second Law.
- Drawing and classifying lines and angles to understand the exact dimensions of the court better.
- Comparing values and expressions to fully understand scoring in the game and how it differs from any other sport through the popular theory of its correlation to an analog clock.
