Front

What is the coordinate plane?

Back

A two-dimensional surface where points are defined by pairs of numbers (x, y).

Front

What does the first number in a coordinate pair represent?

Back

The first number (x-coordinate) represents the horizontal distance from the origin.

Front

What does the second number in a coordinate pair represent?

Back

The second number (y-coordinate) represents the vertical distance from the origin.

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

How do you find the distance of a point from the origin on the y-axis?

Back

Use the y-coordinate of the point.

Front

How do you find the distance of a point from the origin on the x-axis?

Back

Use the x-coordinate of the point.

Front

If a point is at (2, 9), how far is it from the origin on the y-axis?

Back

9 units.

Front

If a point is at (2, 9), how far is it from the origin on the x-axis?

Back

2 units.

Front

If a point is at (9, 5), how far is it from the origin on the y-axis?

Back

5 units.
