We need to move 5 steps to the right (because it is a positive integer) and move 2 steps up (because again it is positive) to find the point, as shown below: Thus, the x-coordinate or the abscissa specifies the horizontal distance of your point from the origin and by looking at the sign we can glean whether we need to move right or left from the origin. Let us try to locate the point (5,2) on the cartesian plane. The x-coordinate is alternatively referred to as the abscissa and the y-coordinate is referred to as simply the ordinate. Thus, the origin has x-coordinate zero and the y-coordinate as zero as well. These two values are referred to as the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate, respectively. All points are specified relative to the origin and have two values. Locating points The origin of the cartesian plane is denoted by (0,0).
The above figure gives you a handy way to remember the signs of quadrants. Finally, points in Quadrant IV (bottom, right) have x-values positive but y-values negative. Points in Quadrant III (bottom, left) have both x- and y-values to be negative. Points in Quadrant II (top, left) have x-values negative and y-values positive. Points in Quadrant I (top right) have x-values positive and y-values positive. The four quadrants As the picture above shows the quadrants are named Quadrants I, II, III, and IV starting from the (top, right) quadrant and moving in the counter-clockwise direction. In the cartesian plane, the x-axis and y-axis are at right angles to each other and the point at which they intersect is called the origin. As the name suggests, a quadrant means “one fourth” and refers to a quarter of the cartesian plane defined by the x- and y-axes. Now we can see below illustration that there exists a linear relationship between the x and y-axis.We will learn about quadrants in math, specifically quadrants in two dimensional cartesian geometry. Starting with the value of x from 0 to 3: Let’s say we want to plot it for four coordinate pairs. Now we want to plot it on the x and y-axis. Demonstrating Linearity Relation Between X and Y Axis In this region, the value of numbers lying on the x-axis is positive while the value of numbers lying on the y-axis is negative. The bottom right portion of the graph is known as the fourth quadrant. In this region, the value of numbers lying on the x-axis is negative while the value of numbers lying on the y-axis is also negative. The bottom left portion of the graph is known as the third quadrant. In this region, the value of numbers lying on the x-axis is negative while the value of numbers lying on the y-axis is positive. The top left portion of the graph is known as the second quadrant. In this region the value of numbers lying on x and y on both axes are positive.
The top right portion of the graph is known as the first quadrant. The above figure shows the illustration of quadrants So there are four quadrants depending upon the positive and negative values of x and y. X and Y axis divide the coordinate plane into four different halves which are referred to as quadrants.
