Coordinate Plane

Front

What is the vertical number line in the coordinate plane called?

Back

y-axis

Front

What are the coordinates for POINT H?

Back

(1, 2)

Front

What are the coordinates for Point T?

Back

(-3, -2)

Front

How do you calculate the distance between two points in the coordinate plane?

Back

Use the distance formula: d = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).

Front

What is the X-axis in the coordinate plane?

Back

The horizontal number line.

Front

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

Back

(0, 0)

Front

What does each point in the coordinate plane represent?

Back

A unique pair of coordinates (x, y) that defines its position.

Front

What is the purpose of the coordinate plane?

Back

To graphically represent points, lines, and shapes using a pair of numerical coordinates.

Front

What is the relationship between the x-axis and y-axis?

Back

They intersect at the origin and are perpendicular to each other.

Front

How do you identify the quadrant in which a point lies?

Back

By examining the signs of the x and y coordinates: Quadrant I (positive, positive), Quadrant II (negative, positive), Quadrant III (negative, negative), Quadrant IV (positive, negative).
