Coordinate Plane

Front

What is the definition of an ordered pair?

Back

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

Front

What does the first number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

The first number in an ordered pair represents the x-coordinate, which indicates the horizontal position on the coordinate plane.

Front

What does the second number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

The second number in an ordered pair represents the y-coordinate, which indicates the vertical position on the coordinate plane.

Front

How many quadrants are in the coordinate plane?

Back

There are 4 quadrants in the coordinate plane.

Front

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

Back

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

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 would the point (3, -2) be located?

Back

The point (3, -2) is located in Quadrant IV.

Front

In which quadrant would the point (-3, 2) be located?

Back
