Looking for a coordinate plane quiz? Then this Grade 6 quiz on Plotting Points and Shapes on the Coordinate Plane asks 10 multiple-choice questions with instant feedback. Ten questions on quadrants, ordered pairs, reflections and distances on the coordinate plane. Pick one answer, then read the explanation to see the typical trap.
Standards: 6.NS.C.6b, 6.NS.C.6c, 6.NS.C.8, 6.G.A.3 · Level: Grade 6
What this Plotting Points and Shapes on the Coordinate Plane quiz checks
- Ordered pair (x, y): horizontal move first, vertical move second.
- Quadrants I, II, III, IV have signs (+,+), (−,+), (−,−), (+,−).
- Reflection across the x-axis changes y to −y; across the y-axis changes x to −x.
- Points sharing a coordinate are a horizontal or vertical distance apart.
- Points with a 0 coordinate lie on an axis and belong to no quadrant.
The 10 questions of the quiz
- In which quadrant is the point (−4, 7)?
- Which point lies in Quadrant III?
- What is the reflection of (7, −3) across the x-axis?
- What is the reflection of (−2, 9) across the y-axis?
- What is the distance between (−5, 4) and (6, 4)?
- What are the coordinates of point T?
- What is the length of the vertical side of the rectangle?
- Exactly one of these points sits on the horizontal axis. Which one?
- What is the distance between (3, −8) and (3, 5)?
- A point (a, b) is in Quadrant IV. What are the signs of a and b?
After the quiz
Missed a question? Reread the Plotting Points and Shapes on the Coordinate Plane lesson, then take the quiz again. Next, solve the Grade 6 worksheet on Plotting Points and Shapes on the Coordinate Plane, one star first, then two and three stars. Finally, take the chapter test under real conditions, without notes and with a timer.
