Coordinate Points

Front

What is a coordinate point?

Back

A coordinate point is a pair of numbers that define a specific location on a two-dimensional plane, represented 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 is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

What is the x-axis?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal number line in a coordinate plane.

Front

What is the y-axis?

Back

The y-axis is the vertical number line in a coordinate plane.

Front

How do you identify the coordinates of a point?

Back

The coordinates of a point are identified by its position along the x-axis (x-coordinate) and y-axis (y-coordinate).

Front

What is the ordered pair for point A located at 3 units right and 4 units up from the origin?

Back

(3, 4)

Front

What is the ordered pair for point B located at 2 units left and 5 units down from the origin?

Back

(-2, -5)

Front

If a point has coordinates (-3, 2), where is it located?

Back

It is located 3 units left and 2 units up from the origin.
