FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is a coordinate plane?

Back

A coordinate plane is a two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a horizontal line (x-axis) and a vertical line (y-axis), used to locate points using ordered pairs.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to represent a point on a coordinate plane, written in the form (x, y), where x is the horizontal position and y is the vertical position.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does the x-coordinate represent in an ordered pair?

Back

The x-coordinate represents the horizontal position of a point on the coordinate plane.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does the y-coordinate represent in an ordered pair?

Back

The y-coordinate represents the vertical position of a point on the coordinate plane.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you identify the coordinates of a point on a coordinate plane?

Back

To identify the coordinates of a point, locate the point on the plane, determine how far it is from the y-axis (x-coordinate) and how far it is from the x-axis (y-coordinate), and write them as an ordered pair (x, y).

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the significance of 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). It serves as the reference point for all other points on the plane.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

If a point is located at (3, 5), what does this indicate about its position?

Back

The point (3, 5) is located 3 units to the right of the origin along the x-axis and 5 units up along the y-axis.
