Graphing Points on 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 coordinates of a point?

Back

Coordinates of a point are a pair of numbers (x, y) that define its position on the coordinate plane, where 'x' represents the horizontal position and 'y' represents the vertical position.

Front

How many quadrants are in a coordinate plane?

Back

There are 4 quadrants in a coordinate plane, each representing a different combination of positive and negative values for x and y.

Front

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

Back

The distance formula is: Distance = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).

Front

What is the distance between the points (3, 4) and (3, -2)?

Back

The distance is 6 units.

Front

What is the distance between the points (-3, 4) and (-3, -8)?

Back

The distance is 12 units.

Front

What does the point (4, -6) represent on the coordinate plane?

Back

The point (4, -6) is located 4 units to the right of the origin and 6 units down.

Front

What is the x-coordinate in the point (5, 2)?

Back

The x-coordinate is 5.

Front

What is the y-coordinate in the point (5, 2)?

Back

The y-coordinate is 2.

Front

What is the perimeter of a rectangle with length 12 units and width 5 units?

Back

The perimeter is 34 units.
