Coordinate Plane

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). It is used to locate points using ordered pairs (x, y).

Front

What are the four quadrants of a coordinate plane?

Back

The four quadrants are: 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

What are the coordinates of the origin?

Back

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

Front

In which quadrant is the point (2, 5) located?

Back

Quadrant I.

Front

What are the coordinates of point E if it is located 2 units up on the y-axis?

Back

(0, 2).

Front

What are the coordinates of point H if it is located 1 unit right and 2 units up from the origin?

Back

(1, 2).

Front

In which quadrant is the point (-4, 5) located?

Back

Quadrant II.

Front

What ordered pair describes a point located 5 units to the left of the origin and 3 units below the x-axis?

Back

(-5, -3).

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.

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.
