Year 7 Coordinates: Quadrants, Midpoints and Distance Worksheet — Level 2 — Practice Set 4 — Answers

Midpoint = (average of the x-values, average of the y-values). Distance: use Pythagoras with the horizontal and vertical changes.

1.In which quadrant is the point (8, 9)?
  1. Afirst
  2. Bsecond
  3. Cthird
  4. Dfourth

Answer: first

x is positive and y is positive, so the point is in the first quadrant.

2.Find the midpoint of the segment joining (0, 9) and (−4, −2).

Answer: (−2, 3.5)

  1. x: (0 + (−4)) ÷ 2 = −2
  2. y: (9 + (−2)) ÷ 2 = 3.5
3.In which quadrant is the point (−2, −5)?
  1. Afirst
  2. Bsecond
  3. Cthird
  4. Dfourth

Answer: third

x is negative and y is negative, so the point is in the third quadrant.

4.In which quadrant is the point (9, 1)?
  1. Afirst
  2. Bsecond
  3. Cthird
  4. Dfourth

Answer: first

x is positive and y is positive, so the point is in the first quadrant.

5.Find the midpoint of the segment joining (−5, −8) and (2, −1).

Answer: (−1.5, −4.5)

  1. x: (−5 + 2) ÷ 2 = −1.5
  2. y: (−8 + (−1)) ÷ 2 = −4.5
6.In which quadrant is the point (−4, −7)?
  1. Afirst
  2. Bsecond
  3. Cthird
  4. Dfourth

Answer: third

x is negative and y is negative, so the point is in the third quadrant.

7.In which quadrant is the point (−1, −9)?
  1. Afirst
  2. Bsecond
  3. Cthird
  4. Dfourth

Answer: third

x is negative and y is negative, so the point is in the third quadrant.

8.In which quadrant is the point (8, −4)?
  1. Afirst
  2. Bsecond
  3. Cthird
  4. Dfourth

Answer: fourth

x is positive and y is negative, so the point is in the fourth quadrant.

9.In which quadrant is the point (3, 6)?
  1. Afirst
  2. Bsecond
  3. Cthird
  4. Dfourth

Answer: first

x is positive and y is positive, so the point is in the first quadrant.

10.In which quadrant is the point (−6, −5)?
  1. Afirst
  2. Bsecond
  3. Cthird
  4. Dfourth

Answer: third

x is negative and y is negative, so the point is in the third quadrant.

11.In which quadrant is the point (3, 1)?
  1. Afirst
  2. Bsecond
  3. Cthird
  4. Dfourth

Answer: first

x is positive and y is positive, so the point is in the first quadrant.

12.In which quadrant is the point (−6, 7)?
  1. Afirst
  2. Bsecond
  3. Cthird
  4. Dfourth

Answer: second

x is negative and y is positive, so the point is in the second quadrant.

Marking tips

  • Give credit for correct method even when the final answer slips — the working shows where the thinking went right.
  • For open-ended tasks, use the success criteria as a checklist rather than looking for one "right" answer.
  • Celebrate what went well first, then pick one thing to work on next.
