Coordinate Plane

Front

What is the coordinate plane?

Back

A two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a horizontal number line (x-axis) and a vertical number line (y-axis).

Front

What are the axes in a coordinate plane?

Back

The x-axis (horizontal) and y-axis (vertical) are the two lines that define the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the origin in the coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

How do you plot a point on the coordinate plane?

Back

Start at the origin, move along the x-axis to the x-coordinate, then move vertically to the y-coordinate.

Front

What are coordinates?

Back

A pair of numbers (x, y) that define a specific point on the coordinate plane.

Front

What does the first number in a coordinate pair represent?

Back

The x-coordinate, which indicates the horizontal position.

Front

What does the second number in a coordinate pair represent?

Back

The y-coordinate, which indicates the vertical position.

Front

What is a quadrant in the coordinate plane?

Back

One of the four sections created by the x-axis and y-axis.

Front

How many quadrants are in the coordinate plane?

Back

There are four quadrants in the coordinate plane.

Front

What are the coordinates of Point A if it is located at (4,7)?

Back

The x-coordinate is 4 and the y-coordinate is 7.
