Explain why graphs often show only the first quadrant and omit the other three quadrants.

Answer (3)

It's because if you are only working with positives, then the first quadrant is the only one that can help you, if you draw the other 3, then you just take up too much space to represent something you don't even need to show

It is because the **first quadrants **have **positive **values of x and y.
What are quadrants?
**Quadrants **are one-fourth of **coordinate **geometry and it is counted in an **anticlockwise **direction from the right top.
The **angle **of any quadrant is 90 degrees.
The only quadrant in which x and y both are **positive **is the first quadrant.
If we **draw **any figure in the **first **quadrants then it becomes **easy **to do any operation because of the positive values of x and y.
For example, if you want to **measure **distance then in the first quadrant it si **positive **but in the second or any other either x or y or both will be negative .
Hence "It is because the **first quadrants **have **positive **values of x and y".

Graphs often show only the first quadrant because it contains positive values for both x and y, making it easier to interpret and apply in various scenarios. This focus helps simplify discussions and calculations, especially when dealing with real-world quantities that cannot be negative. Additionally, many functions and analyses are defined within this quadrant for practicality and clarity.
