Coordinate Plane-Test

Front

What is the distance formula used to calculate the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) on a coordinate plane?

Back

Distance = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²)

Front

What does the term 'slope' represent in a coordinate plane?

Back

The slope represents the steepness of a line, calculated as rise/run.

Front

What is the X-axis in a coordinate plane?

Back

The X-axis is the horizontal line that runs left to right.

Front

What is the Y-axis in a coordinate plane?

Back

The Y-axis is the vertical line that runs up and down.

Front

How do you identify the coordinates of a point on a coordinate plane?

Back

Coordinates are written as (x, y), where x is the position on the X-axis and y is the position on the Y-axis.

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

The origin is the point (0, 0) where the X-axis and Y-axis intersect.

Front

What does a positive slope indicate about a line on a graph?

Back

A positive slope indicates that as x increases, y also increases.

Front

What does a negative slope indicate about a line on a graph?

Back

A negative slope indicates that as x increases, y decreases.

Front

What is the formula for calculating the slope (m) between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

Slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Front

What is the significance of the coordinates (1, 2) on a coordinate plane?

Back

The point (1, 2) is located 1 unit right and 2 units up from the origin.
