FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you determine the quadrant of a point (x, y)?

Back

Check the signs of x and y: If x > 0 and y > 0, it's in the 1st Quadrant; if x < 0 and y > 0, it's in the 2nd Quadrant; if x < 0 and y < 0, it's in the 3rd Quadrant; if x > 0 and y < 0, it's in the 4th Quadrant.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the distance between the points (a, b) and (a, c) on a horizontal line?

Back

Distance = |b - c|, since the x-coordinates are the same.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the significance of the y-axis in the coordinate plane?

Back

The y-axis is the vertical line where x = 0, and it separates the 1st and 2nd quadrants from the 3rd and 4th quadrants.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the significance of the x-axis in the coordinate plane?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line where y = 0, and it separates the upper quadrants (1st and 2nd) from the lower quadrants (3rd and 4th).
