When it is a first-quarter moon, the moon is located to the right or left of the Earth and the sun, but not directly in between them. To be more specific, the moon is about 90 degrees east of the sun in the sky, while the Earth is in between the moon and the sun.

Apologies for the confusion. You are correct.

During a first-quarter moon, the moon is located between the Earth and the sun. More precisely, it is positioned about 90 degrees east of the sun in the sky, with the Earth being between the moon and the sun.

What is a similarity between the first-quarter moon and the third-quarter moon? (1 point)

A similarity between the first-quarter moon and the third-quarter moon is that both phases occur when the moon is at a 90-degree angle to the Earth and the sun. In both cases, half of the moon's surface is illuminated and visible from Earth. The main difference between these two phases is the position of the moon relative to the Earth and the sun.
