NS.6 Coordinate Plane

Front

What is the coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

What are the four quadrants of the coordinate plane?

Back

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

How do you identify the coordinates of a point?

Back

The coordinates are given as an ordered pair (x, y), where 'x' is the horizontal distance from the origin and 'y' is the vertical distance from the origin.

Front

What does the x-coordinate represent?

Back

The x-coordinate indicates the horizontal position of a point on the coordinate plane.

Front

What does the y-coordinate represent?

Back

The y-coordinate indicates the vertical position of a point on the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the origin in the coordinate plane?

Back

The origin is the point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect, represented by the coordinates (0, 0).

Front

What is the distance around an object called?

Back

Perimeter.

Front

If the y-coordinate is 0, where is the point located?

Back

The point is located on the x-axis.

Front

If the x-coordinate is 0, where is the point located?

Back

The point is located on the y-axis.

Front

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