Geometry › How to graph an ordered pair
The point on the coordinate plane with coordinates lies _____
in Quadrant I.
in Quadrant II.
in Quadrant III.
in Quadrant IV.
on an axis.
On the coordinate plane, a point with a positive -coordinate and a positive
-coordinate lies in the upper right quadrant - Quadrant I.
The point on the coordinate plane with coordinates lies _____
in Quadrant II.
in Quadrant III.
in Quadrant IV.
in Quadrant I.
on an axis.
On the coordinate plane, a point with a negative -coordinate and a positive
-coordinate lies in the upper left quadrant - Quadrant II.
The point on the coordinate plane with coordinates lies _____
on an axis.
in Quadrant IV.
in Quadrant III.
in Quadrant I.
in Quadrant II.
On the coordinate plane, a point with 0 as one of its coordinates lies on an axis.
What ordered pair is shown below?
The x-coordinate is the first one listed, and the y-coordinate is the second coordinate in the parentheses. You have to go either left or right with the x-coordinate, and the y-coordinate is the one on the vertical axis.
The point shown is in the IV quadrant, which means that the x-coordinate is positive, and the y-coordinate is negative.
The only point that fulfills those standards is .
Which quadrant or axis can include the point ?
Quadrant I
Quadrant II
Quadrant III
Quadrant IV
The -axis
The ordered pair consists of a positive
-coordinate and a positive
-coordinate. The only quadrant that consists entirely of positive
- and
-coordinates is Quadrant I.
Which pair of coordinates lies within quadrant II?
By definition, quadrant I has positive coordinates, quadrant II has coordinates, quadrant III has negative coordinates, and quadrant IV has
coordinates, as shown by the diagram below. Only one answer choice falls within quadrant II. All others lie in other coordinates or one of the axes.
- Quadrant II
- Quadrant I
- x-axis
- y-axis
- Quadrant III
What are the coordinates of the two points that make up the line segment below? The ordered pairs are in order from left to right.
The scale on the graph is unit. You have to go to the left of zero, which means the x-coordinate is negative. You also have to go down, so the y-coordinate is negative. The correct coordinates that make up the line segment are
.
Which of the following ordered pairs is in Quadrant III?
By definition, only Quadrant III contains ordered pairs that have both negative - and
-coordinates.
To discover the answer, we must plug in the x-values to see which ordered pair results in the corresponding y-value.
Which quadrants can include the point if nonzero numbers
and
have the same sign?
Either Quadrant I or Quadrant IV
Either Quadrant I or Quadrant II
Either Quadrant II or Quadrant IV
Either Quadrant II or Quadrant III
Either Quadrant I or Quadrant III
If and
have the same sign, then
, and the point has a positive
-coordinate. The sign of
is the same as the common sign of
and
. Therefore, only the
-coordinate restricts the possibilities.
The points witn positive -coordinates are in Quadrant I and Quadrant IV.
