graph quadrants

Let us learn about graph quadrants


There are four quadrants in a graph.
The most used 1 is the first quadrants which is the top right one.
The second quadrant is the 1 on the left of it.
The third is the 1 below the second quadrant
The forth quadrant is the 1 on the graph that is below the first quadrant.
II | I
---+---
III | IV
Divide the graph into four parts & each part is called as quadrant. Traditionally, learner use the x & y axis to divide it. The portion of the graph with positive x & y coordinates is the 1st quadrant; the 2nd has positive y values & negative x values, while the 3rd quadrant has both negative x & negative y values. The last is the 4th quadrants which are below the 1st quadrant. It has positive x values & negative y values.
The point (0,0) the center of a clock, the 1st quadrant is between 3 & 12 & the 2nd between 12 & 9, the 3rd between 9 & 6 & the 4th between 12 & 3.
In our next blog we shall learn about particle theory of matter I hope the above explanation was useful.Keep reading and leave your comments.
