Coordinate Plane Review

Front

What are the coordinates of a point in the coordinate plane?

Back

The coordinates of a point are expressed as an ordered pair (X, Y), where X is the horizontal position and Y is the vertical position.

Front

What is the ordered pair for point A if it is located at (2, 0)?

Back

The ordered pair for point A is (2, 0), where 2 is the X-coordinate and 0 is the Y-coordinate.

Front

In which quadrant is Point B located if its coordinates are (3, -1)?

Back

Point B is located in Quadrant IV, where X is positive and Y is negative.

Front

What are the coordinates of Point C if it is located at (-4, -2)?

Back

The coordinates of Point C are (-4, -2), where -4 is the X-coordinate and -2 is the Y-coordinate.

Front

Where is point E located if its coordinates are (0, 2)?

Back

Point E is located on the Y-axis at (0, 2), where 0 is the X-coordinate and 2 is the Y-coordinate.

Front

How do you write an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is written as (X, Y), where X represents the horizontal position and Y represents the vertical position.

Front

What is the significance of the X-coordinate in an ordered pair?

Back

The X-coordinate indicates the horizontal position of a point on the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the significance of the Y-coordinate in an ordered pair?

Back

The Y-coordinate indicates the vertical position of a point on the coordinate plane.

Front

What are the four quadrants of the coordinate plane?

Back

The four quadrants are: Quadrant I (X positive, Y positive), Quadrant II (X negative, Y positive), Quadrant III (X negative, Y negative), Quadrant IV (X positive, Y negative).

Front

How can you determine the quadrant of a point given its coordinates?

Back

To determine the quadrant, check the signs of the X and Y coordinates: both positive is Quadrant I, X negative and Y positive is Quadrant II, both negative is Quadrant III, and X positive and Y negative is Quadrant IV.
