Coordinate Planes and Quadrants

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 four quadrants of a 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

What are the coordinates of a point?

Back

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

Front

Which quadrant contains points where both x and y are positive?

Back

Quadrant I.

Front

Which quadrant contains points where x is negative and y is positive?

Back

Quadrant IV.

Front

What are the coordinates of the point located at (0, 0)?

Back

The coordinates (0, 0) represent the origin of the coordinate plane.
