Points on Coordinate Grid

Front

What are the four quadrants in a coordinate plane?

Back

Quadrant I (positive x, positive y), Quadrant II (negative x, positive y), Quadrant III (negative x, negative y), Quadrant IV (positive x, negative y).

Front

What is the definition of an ordered pair?

Back

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

Front

How do you identify the x-coordinate in an ordered pair?

Back

The x-coordinate is the first number in the ordered pair (x, y) and represents the horizontal position on the coordinate grid.

Front

How do you identify the y-coordinate in an ordered pair?

Back

The y-coordinate is the second number in the ordered pair (x, y) and represents the vertical position on the coordinate grid.

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

The origin is the point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect, represented by the ordered pair (0, 0).

Front

How many total points are there in a coordinate plane?

Back

There are infinitely many points in a coordinate plane.

Front

What is the distance formula used for in coordinate geometry?

Back

The distance formula is used to calculate the distance between two points in a coordinate plane, given by the formula: d = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).

Front

What does it mean for a point to be in Quadrant I?

Back

A point is in Quadrant I if both its x-coordinate and y-coordinate are positive.

Front

What does it mean for a point to be in Quadrant II?

Back

A point is in Quadrant II if its x-coordinate is negative and its y-coordinate is positive.

Front

What does it mean for a point to be in Quadrant III?

Back

A point is in Quadrant III if both its x-coordinate and y-coordinate are negative.
