Coordinate Plane

Front

What is the coordinate plane?

Back

A two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a horizontal line (x-axis) and a vertical line (y-axis).

Front

What are the four quadrants of the coordinate plane?

Back

Quadrant I (x > 0, y > 0), Quadrant II (x < 0, y > 0), Quadrant III (x < 0, y < 0), Quadrant IV (x > 0, y < 0).

Front

How do you identify the coordinates of a point?

Back

By using an ordered pair (x, y), where 'x' is the horizontal position and 'y' is the vertical position.

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

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

Front

Which axis is the horizontal axis?

Back

The x-axis.

Front

Which axis is the vertical axis?

Back

The y-axis.

Front

What is the origin in the coordinate plane?

Back

The point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect, represented as (0, 0).

Front

How do you determine the quadrant of a point with positive x and negative y coordinates?

Back

The point is located in Quadrant IV.

Front

How do you determine the quadrant of a point with negative x and positive y coordinates?

Back

The point is located in Quadrant II.

Front

What is the distance formula between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Distance = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).
