Example Questions
Example Question #1 : How To Find The Points On A Coordinate Plane
Which of the following points would be located in Quadrant III?
By definition, a point on the coordinate plane that is in Quadrant III must have both a negative coordinate and a negative coordinate. The only answer choice that satisfies both of these conditions is .
Example Question #201 : Ssat Middle Level Quantitative (Math)
In which quadrant or on what axis will you find the point ?
The -axis
Quadrant I
Quadrant II
Quadrant IV
Quadrant III
Quadrant II
The point has a negative coordinate and a positive coordinate. By definition, any point on a coordinate plane with these characteristics is located in Quadrant II.
Example Question #13 : Coordinate Geometry
In which quadrant or on which axis will you find the point ?
The -axis
The -axis
Quadrant II
Quadrant III
Quadrant I
The -axis
The point does not move in any direction on the -axis, but does move units up on the -axis. Therefore, the point is located only on the -axis.
Example Question #2 : How To Find The Points On A Coordinate Plane
Which of the following points is in Quadrant II on the coordinate plane?
All points in Quadrant II have negative -coordinates and positive -coordinates. The only answer that fulfills these criteria is .
Example Question #202 : Ssat Middle Level Quantitative (Math)
In which quadrant or on which axis will we find the point ?
Quadrant I
Quadrant IV
Quadrant II
The -axis
The -axis
The -axis
By definition, any point in the coordinate plane that has a non-zero value -coordinate and a zero-value -coordinate is on the -axis.
Example Question #3 : How To Find The Points On A Coordinate Plane
In which quadrant or on which axis of the coordinate plane will you find the point ?
The -axis
Quadrant IV
Quadrant III
Quadrant I
Quadrant II
Quadrant IV
A point with a positive -coordinate and a negative -coordinate can be found in Quadrant IV.
Example Question #204 : Ssat Middle Level Quantitative (Math)
A line segment on the coordinate plane has its endpoints at the points with coordinates and . Give the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment.
The -coordinate of the midpoint can be found by dividing the sum of the -coordinates of the endpoints by 2:
The -coordinate of the midpoint is found similarly:
The coordinates of the midpoint are .
Example Question #205 : Ssat Middle Level Quantitative (Math)
A line segment on the coordinate plane has its endpoints at the points with coordinates and . Give the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment.
The -coordinate of the midpoint is half the sum of the -coordinates of the endpoints:
The -coordinate of the midpoint is found similarly:
The midpoint has coordinates .
Example Question #1 : Graphing Points
In which quadrant or on which axis will you find the point ?
Quadrant I
Quadrant III
Quadrant IV
Quadrant II
The -axis
Quadrant III
By definition, a point with a negative -coordinate and a negative -coordinate lies in Quadrant III on the coordinate plane.
