Coordinate plane 6th grade

Front

What is the definition of the coordinate plane?

Back

The coordinate plane is a two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a horizontal number line (X-axis) and a vertical number line (Y-axis).

Front

What are the coordinates of a point in the coordinate plane?

Back

Coordinates are expressed as an ordered pair (x, y), where 'x' represents the horizontal position and 'y' represents the vertical position.

Front

What does it mean to reflect a point over the X-axis?

Back

Reflecting a point over the X-axis means to create a new point that has the same x-coordinate but the opposite y-coordinate.

Front

What is the X-axis?

Back

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

Front

What is the Y-axis?

Back

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

Front

In which quadrant would you find the point (4, 5)?

Back

The point (4, 5) is located in Quadrant I, where both x and y coordinates are positive.

Front

How do you graph an ordered pair (x, y) on the coordinate plane?

Back

To graph an ordered pair, start at the origin (0, 0), move 'x' units along the X-axis, and then move 'y' units up (if positive) or down (if negative) along the Y-axis.

Front

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

Back

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

Front

What is the significance of Quadrant II in the coordinate plane?

Back

In Quadrant II, the x-coordinates are negative and the y-coordinates are positive.

Front

What is the significance of Quadrant III in the coordinate plane?

Back

In Quadrant III, both x and y coordinates are negative.
