Coordinate Plane

Which quadrant contains the point named by (2, 5)?

• Quadrant I

• Quadrant II

• Quadrant III

• Quadrant IV

Answer explanation

(positive, positive) will always be in Quadrant I

In which quadrant is the following point?

(-3, 12)

• Quadrant I

• Quadrant II

• Quadrant III

• Quadrant IV

Answer explanation

(negative, positive) will always be in Quadrant II

Which letter matches the coordinate (4, -6)?

• G

• Z

• K

• None of the above

Answer explanation

Four right, then six down!

Where is point E located?

• ( 2, 0 )

• ( 2 , 2 )

• ( 0 , 2 )

• ( 0 , 0 )

Answer explanation

since it did not move left or right, the x coordinate is zero! Since it moved two up, the y-coordinate is positive two!

The axes divide the coordinate plane into four sections called what?

• ordered pairs

• origins

• quadrants

• coordinate plane

Answer explanation

Remember the order of the quadrants follows a 'C' pattern!

• I

• IV

• III

• II

Answer explanation

Remember the Quadrants make a 'C' for Coordinate plane!

Where is Point A located?

• Quadrant I

• Quadrant IV

• On the x-axis

• On the y-axis

Answer explanation

Point A is not in a quadrant, it lies on the x-axis

Name the quadrant where POINT C is located.

• Quadrant I

• Quadrant II

• Quadrant III

• No Quadrant

Answer explanation

Remember the Quadrants make a 'C' for Coordinate plane!

Give the coordinates for POINT H.

• (-1, 2)

• (1, -2)

• (-1, -2)

• (1 , 2)

Answer explanation

Start at the origin, move one right (positive one), then move up two (positive two) to make (1,2)

Which letter matches the coordinate (4, -6)?

• G

• Z

• K

• None of the above

Answer explanation

Start at the origin, then move right four and down six
