What does the first quadrant mean ?

Answer 1

In a normal xy graph, the first quadrant is the area where x and y are both positive (between 0 and 90 degrees).

Answer 2

From what I remember: if you divide a cirlce into 4 (ie. create quadrants) it's the first section (90 degrees) going clockwise. So if looking at a clock it would be the section between 12 and 3, or of using compass directions, it would be between North and East. Tho I may be wrong!

Answer 3

In a graph, the first quadrant is the upper right hand side where all of the numbers are positive.

Answer 4

D. The plane is divided into four quadrants. Quadrant I consists of the points where x>0, y>0. Quadrant II: x<0, y>0 Quadrant III: x<0, y<0 Quadrant IV: x>0, y<0

Answer 5

If you draw the coordinate plane with the x-axis and y-axis labeled, the first quadrant is in the upper right side of the graph. In terms of ordered pairs, it is all of the ordered pairs that have a positive x and y coordinates.

Hope this helps. :)

Answer 6

in a coordinate plane, the section that has only positive numbers

Quadrant 1 = ( positive x, positive y)

Answer 7

if you divide the cartesian plane into four
areas by the x-y axes,the first quadrant
is in the north-eastern position and all of
it's points are +ve

i hope that this helps

Answer 8

The first quadrant (usually labeled as "I") is when x and y, of ordered pair (x, y), are both positive numbers.

Just for reference, the second quadrant (usually labeled as "II") is when x is negative and y is positive. The third quadrant (usually labeled as "III") is when both x and y are negative. The fourth quadrant (usually labeled as "IV") is when x is positive and y is negative.

Answer 9

On a number plane it is the quarter plane where both the x- and y-coordinates are positive
Then you go around the origin in an anticlockwise direction to get the remaining three in order.

Answer 10

angles between 0° & 90° or 0 to π/2 radians
