Question

Name the coordinates of each point.

$\mathit{K}$

Short answer

The name of the coordinate of the point$\mathit{K}$is$\left(4,0\right)$.

Step-by-step solution

Step 1. Observe the figure.

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

Step 2. Define the coordinate of a point.

The 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 K.

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

• The point$K$ is 4 units away from the origin in positive $x$axis. Thus, the $x$-coordinate is 4.
• Then the point$K$ is 0 units away from the origin in positive $y$axis. Thus, the $y$-coordinate is 0.

Therefore, the coordinates of point $K$is $\left(4,0\right)$.
