Coordinate Plane 5th Grade

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 axes in a coordinate plane?

Back

The x-axis (horizontal) and y-axis (vertical) are the two lines that define the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

How do you graph a point (x, y) on the coordinate plane?

Back

Start at the origin (0, 0), move x units along the x-axis, and then y units up or down along the y-axis.

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

A pair of numbers (x, y) that represent a point on the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the x-axis?

Back

The horizontal line on the coordinate plane where y = 0.

Front

What is the y-axis?

Back

The vertical line on the coordinate plane where x = 0.

Front

Graph the point (7, 8). What does it represent?

Back

It represents a point located 7 units right and 8 units up from the origin.

Front

Graph the point (3, 9). What does it represent?

Back

It represents a point located 3 units right and 9 units up from the origin.

Front

Graph the point (2, 6). What does it represent?

Back

It represents a point located 2 units right and 6 units up from the origin.
