Read each question carefully and follow the instructions to identify or plot coordinate points.

1. What are the coordinates of point A on the graph below?

-5-4-3-2-112345-5-4-3-2-112345
a

(3, 2)

b

(-3, 2)

c

(2, -3)

d

(-2, -3)

2. Plot the following points on the coordinate plane below and label them B, C, D.

B = (4, -1)

C = (-2, -5)

D = (0, 3)

-5-4-3-2-112345-5-4-3-2-112345

The x-coordinate of point B is  .

The y-coordinate of point C is  .

Point D lies on the   axis.

3. In which quadrant would you find the point (-5, 7)? Explain your reasoning.

4. The point (0, 0) is called the origin.

T

True

F

False

5. A point with a negative x-coordinate and a positive y-coordinate is in Quadrant IV.

T

True

F

False

6. Imagine you are drawing a square on a coordinate plane. If two of its vertices are at (1, 1) and (4, 1), what could be the coordinates of the other two vertices?
