Front

What are the coordinates for the origin in the coordinate plane?

Back

(0,0)

Front

What does the ordered pair (x,y) represent in a coordinate plane?

Back

The position of a point where 'x' is the horizontal distance from the origin and 'y' is the vertical distance from the origin.

Front

If a point is located at (3, 4), how many units is it from the origin?

Back

It is 3 units to the right and 4 units up from the origin.

Front

What is the rule if Trevor adds 23 to Laura's number?

Back

The new number is always 23 more than the number Laura says.

Front

How do you describe the location of point Z if it is 8 units to the right and 2 units up from the origin?

Back

Point Z is represented by the ordered pair (8,2).

Front

What is a coordinate plane?

Back

A two-dimensional surface where points are defined by a pair of numbers (x,y).

Front

What does the x-axis represent in a coordinate plane?

Back

The horizontal line where y=0.

Front

What does the y-axis represent in a coordinate plane?

Back

The vertical line where x=0.

Front

How do you find the distance of a point from the origin?

Back

Use the formula: distance = √(x² + y²).

Front

What is the significance of the point (0,0) in a coordinate plane?

Back

It is called the origin and is the starting point for measuring coordinates.
