E Ascue SOL 6.MG.3 Coordinate Plane Test

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 four quadrants of a coordinate plane?

Back

The four quadrants are: 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 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).

Front

In which quadrant is the point (3, 4) located?

Back

Quadrant I.

Front

In which quadrant is the point (-2, 5) located?

Back

Quadrant II.

Front

In which quadrant is the point (-3, -4) located?

Back

Quadrant III.

Front

In which quadrant is the point (4, -2) located?

Back

Quadrant IV.

Front

What does the x-axis represent?

Back

The x-axis represents the horizontal line on a coordinate plane where the y-coordinate is zero.

Front

What does the y-axis represent?

Back

The y-axis represents the vertical line on a coordinate plane where the x-coordinate is zero.

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.
