What did they need to approve the Constitution?

The constitution was approved by the convention on September 15th 1787 by the constitutional convention in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.It was actually written at the constitutional convention. The meeting was designed to amend the previous "constitution" know as the Articles of Confederation. As the new Constitution was a new set of laws, it had to have the approval of 9 out of the 13 states to be legal and attributed to said states, as stated in the Articles of Confederation. However, after the first 9 states approved it, they wanted to go for the others so that there wasn't a split in the country, specifically in NY which would have caused both a geographical split as well as a political on. To help convince NY to approve, a set of essay's known as The Federalist Papers were sent to the representatives to New York, written by John Jay, Madison and (I think) Jefferson.

Did the US have a supreme court under the articles of confederation?

No. One of the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation was that it made no provision for a federal court system. Article III of the US Constitution, which replaced the Articles of Confederation, required that Congress establish the Supreme Court. In other words, the Constitution said the government had to have a supreme court, but didn't directly create one. It left that task to Congress.

Under the Articles of Confederation it can be said that Congress was?

Short Answer: Powerless. Because the Articles of Confederation did not give the power to the federal government to tax states, any money for any federal programs (mail system, military, road systems, bank system, etc.) have to be volunteered by the states. Also, state government had much more power than federal government according to the Articles of Confederation. Good luck on your test
