Question

Name the coordinates of each point.

$\mathit{T}$

Short answer

The name of the coordinate of point$\mathit{T}$is$\left(-4,3\right)$.

Step-by-step solution

Step 1. Observe the figure.

From the figure it can be observed that, it is the$x-y$ plane with several coordinates$J,K,M,N,O,P,Q,$ and so on are marked on it.

Step 2. Define coordinate of a point.

Coordinate$\left(x,y\right)$ of a point is an ordered pair of numbers; that is, a number on the x-axis called an x-coordinate, and a number on the y-axis called a y-coordinate.

Step 3. Name the coordinates of the point T.

Steps to find the coordinate of point $T$are:

• Point $T$is $-4$ units away from origin in negative x axis. Thus, the x-coordinate is $-4$.
• Then point $T$is 3 units away from origin in positive y axis. Thus, the y-coordinate is 3.

Therefore, the coordinates of point $T$is $\left(-4,3\right)$.
