Coordinate Plane

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).

Front

What are the coordinates of a point?

Back

Coordinates are a pair of numbers that define the position of a point on the coordinate plane, written as (x, y).

Front

What does the x-coordinate represent?

Back

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

Front

What does the y-coordinate represent?

Back

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

Front

What are the four quadrants of the 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

In which quadrant is the point (3, 5)?

Back

Quadrant I.

Back

Quadrant III.

Front

In which quadrant is the point (2, -7)?

Back

Quadrant IV.

Front

What is the origin in the coordinate plane?

Back

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