Using coordinates, the field judge is exactly 5 yards in front of the ball.

What are coordinates?

These are values that show the position of an object, these values often include a number for the x-axis (horizontal axis) and one for the y-axis (vertical axis).

What are the positions of the referee, the back judge, and the field judge?

If we consider the ball as 0 or the starting point the coordinates are:

  • Referee (12, 0)
  • Back judge (-22,0)

  • Field judge
  • y-axis = 0 because all of them are at the ground level
  • x- axis = 12 + 22 = 34/2 = 17
  • x- axis =-22+17= -5=
  • x-axis= -5 or 5 yards in front of the ball.
