Plotting Coordinate Points

Front

What is a coordinate point?

Back

A coordinate point is a pair of numbers (x, y) that define a specific location on a two-dimensional plane, where 'x' represents the horizontal position and 'y' represents the vertical position.

Front

What does the ordered pair (0, 0) represent?

Back

The ordered pair (0, 0) represents the origin point on a coordinate plane, where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.

Front

How do you plot the point (-1, 1) on a coordinate plane?

Back

To plot the point (-1, 1), move 1 unit left from the origin along the x-axis and then 1 unit up along the y-axis.

Front

What is the significance of the first number in an ordered pair?

Back

The first number in an ordered pair represents the x-coordinate, indicating the horizontal position on the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the significance of the second number in an ordered pair?

Back

The second number in an ordered pair represents the y-coordinate, indicating the vertical position on the coordinate plane.

Front

What are the coordinates of point A if it is located at (3, 2)?

Back

The coordinates of point A are (3, 2), meaning it is 3 units to the right and 2 units up from the origin.

Front

How do you identify the quadrant of a point with coordinates (x, y)?

Back

The quadrant can be identified based on the signs of x and y: Quadrant I (x > 0, y > 0), Quadrant II (x < 0, y > 0), Quadrant III (x < 0, y < 0), Quadrant IV (x > 0, y < 0).

Front

What are the coordinates of point L if it is located at (-4, -4)?

Back

The coordinates of point L are (-4, -4), meaning it is 4 units left and 4 units down from the origin.

Front

What is the ordered pair for point C if it is at (2, 4)?

Back

The ordered pair for point C is (2, 4), indicating it is 2 units right and 4 units up from the origin.

Front

How do you determine the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

The distance can be calculated using the formula: Distance = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).
