Question

Greg is designing a clock face. Using the center of the clock face as the origin, he keeps its diameter at 10 units. Match the positions of the hours on the clock face to their corresponding coordinates.

Answer 1

12 o clock is 0,5
3 o clock is 5,0
6 o clock is 0, -5
9 o clock is -5, 0
lemme guess plato

Answer 2

The center of the clock is taken as the origin.The clock is a circle with a diameter 10 units.Radius is half the diameter .Radius = 10 ÷2= 5 units.

The clock is divided in four quadrants .On x axis y=0 and on y axis x=0.

When it is 12 o'clock the hour hand is on positive of y axis.Coordinates of the point at 12 o'clock=(0,5)

When it is 3 o 'clock the hour hand is on positive of x axis .Coordinate of the point at 3o'clock is (5,0)

When it is 6 o'clock the hour hand is on negative of y axis .The coordinates of the point at 6o'clock is (0,-5)

At 9o'clock the hour hand is on negative of x axis .The coordinate of the point at 6o'clock is(-5,0)
