What is a coordinate plane?

Back

A coordinate plane is a two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a vertical line (y-axis) and a horizontal line (x-axis). It is used to locate points using ordered pairs.

What is an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to locate a point on a coordinate plane, written in the form (x, y). The first number represents the x-coordinate, and the second number represents the y-coordinate.

What does the x-axis represent?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line on a coordinate plane where the y-coordinate is zero. It is used to measure the horizontal position of points.

What does the y-axis represent?

Back

The y-axis is the vertical line on a coordinate plane where the x-coordinate is zero. It is used to measure the vertical position of points.

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

The origin is the point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect, represented by the ordered pair (0, 0). It is the starting point for measuring coordinates.

How do you find a point between two points on a vertical line?

Back

To find a point between two points on a vertical line, take the average of the y-coordinates of the two points while keeping the x-coordinate the same.

How do you find a point between two points on a horizontal line?

Back

To find a point between two points on a horizontal line, take the average of the x-coordinates of the two points while keeping the y-coordinate the same.

What is the purpose of a coordinate pair?

Back

A coordinate pair describes the exact location of a point on a coordinate plane, allowing for precise identification of points.

What is the difference between the x-axis and y-axis?

Back

The x-axis runs horizontally and measures the horizontal position, while the y-axis runs vertically and measures the vertical position.

What is the significance of the point (4, 5) on a coordinate plane?

Back

The point (4, 5) indicates that the point is located 4 units to the right of the origin and 5 units up from the origin.
