Is the point (8, 4)
located in Quadrant 1, 2, 3, or 4?
(1 point)
Quadrant
1
To determine the quadrant in which a point is located, we need to look at the signs of the x and y coordinates.
The point (8, 4) has positive x and positive y coordinates.
In Quadrant 1, both the x and y coordinates are positive.
Therefore, the point (8, 4) is located in Quadrant 1.
In order to determine in which quadrant the point (8, 4) is located, we need to understand how quadrants are defined in the coordinate plane.
The coordinate plane is divided into four quadrants: Quadrant 1, Quadrant 2, Quadrant 3, and Quadrant 4. These quadrants are separated by the x-axis and y-axis. The x-axis is the horizontal line that passes through the origin (0, 0), and the y-axis is the vertical line that also passes through the origin.
To determine the quadrant in which a point is located, we look at the signs of the x and y coordinates of the point.
In Quadrant 1, both the x and y coordinates are positive.
In Quadrant 2, the x coordinate is negative, and the y coordinate is positive.
In Quadrant 3, both the x and y coordinates are negative.
In Quadrant 4, the x coordinate is positive, and the y coordinate is negative.
For the point (8, 4), the x coordinate is positive (8) and the y coordinate is also positive (4). This means that the point (8, 4) is located in Quadrant 1, where both the x and y coordinates are positive.
