What is an ordered pair in coordinate geometry?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to represent a point in a two-dimensional space, typically written in the form (x, y), where 'x' is the horizontal coordinate and 'y' is the vertical coordinate.

How do you plot a point given its ordered pair (x, y)?

Back

To plot a point given its ordered pair (x, y), start at the origin (0, 0) on a Cartesian plane. Move 'x' units along the horizontal axis (right for positive, left for negative), and then move 'y' units along the vertical axis (up for positive, down for negative). Mark the point.

What is the significance of the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

The origin is the point (0, 0) on a coordinate plane where the x-axis and y-axis intersect. It serves as the reference point for all other points.

How can you determine the letter associated with a point on a grid?

Back

To determine the letter associated with a point on a grid, you need to refer to a specific mapping or labeling system that assigns letters to coordinates.
