The first coordinate of a point corresponds to the x-axis and the second coordinate corresponds to the y-axis.
Practice makes perfect
We want to graph and label triangle CDE with the given vertices.
C(- 1,1), D(- 4,0), E(0,- 2)
To do so we must recall that the first coordinate of a point corresponds to the x-axis and the second coordinate corresponds to the y-axis.
