Coordinate Plane

Front

What is an ordered pair in the coordinate plane?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to represent a point in the coordinate plane, written in the form (X, Y).

Front

How many quadrants are there in the coordinate plane?

Back

There are four quadrants in the coordinate plane.

Front

What are the coordinates of the origin in the coordinate plane?

Back

The coordinates of the origin are (0, 0).

Front

In which quadrant is the point (3, -5) located?

Back

The point (3, -5) is located in Quadrant IV.

Front

What does it mean to reflect a point across the y-axis?

Back

Reflecting a point across the y-axis means to create a mirror image of the point on the opposite side of the y-axis, changing the sign of the x-coordinate.

Front

What are the coordinates of the point reflected across the x-axis from (4, 5)?

Back

The coordinates of the point reflected across the x-axis from (4, 5) are (4, -5).

Front

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

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line in the coordinate plane where the y-coordinate is zero.

Front

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

Back

The y-axis is the vertical line in the coordinate plane where the x-coordinate is zero.

Front

How do you determine the quadrant of a point with negative x and positive y coordinates?

Back

A point with negative x and positive y coordinates is located in Quadrant II.

Front

What are the coordinates of a point on the y-axis?

Back

The coordinates of a point on the y-axis are of the form (0, Y), where Y can be any real number.
