Example Questions
Example Question #201 : Ssat Middle Level Quantitative (Math)
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 #1 : Graphing Points
In which quadrant or on what axis will you find the point ?
Quadrant III
Quadrant II
The -axis
Quadrant I
Quadrant IV
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 #2 : Graphing Points
In which quadrant or on which axis will you find the point ?
Quadrant I
The -axis
The -axis
Quadrant III
Quadrant II
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 #3 : Graphing Points
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 #21 : Graphing
In which quadrant or on which axis will we find the point ?
The -axis
Quadrant II
Quadrant I
Quadrant IV
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 #22 : Graphing
In which quadrant or on which axis of the coordinate plane will you find the point ?
Quadrant III
Quadrant II
Quadrant I
The -axis
Quadrant IV
Quadrant IV
A point with a positive -coordinate and a negative
-coordinate can be found in Quadrant IV.
Example Question #1 : How To Find The Points On A Coordinate Plane
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 #4 : How To Find The Points On A Coordinate Plane
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 #21 : Geometry
In which quadrant or on which axis will you find the point ?
Quadrant III
Quadrant II
The -axis
Quadrant I
Quadrant IV
Quadrant III
By definition, a point with a negative -coordinate and a negative
-coordinate lies in Quadrant III on the coordinate plane.
