Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Read the coordinates of point A from the diagram and write down its (x, y) values.
[2 marks]
2.
Identify the coordinate point that is located at 7 units along the x-axis and 2 units along the y-axis.
[2 marks]
3.
On the grid, point B is at (−4, 6). What are the coordinates of the point directly below it 3 units down?
[2 marks]
4.
Plot and read the coordinates of the point that is 4 units right and 3 units up from the origin.
[3 marks]
5.
A cyclist is at point (2, 3) and travels to point (5, 7). What are the coordinates of the destination point?
[2 marks]
6.
