Day 78 FLASHCARD - 6.MG.3 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). Each point on the plane is defined by an ordered pair of numbers (x, y).

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

In which quadrant is the point (-3, -12)?

Back

Quadrant III.

Front

What are the coordinates of Point C if it is located at (-4, -2)?

Back

The coordinates of Point C are (-4, -2).

Front

What are the coordinates of Point I if it is located at (-2, -5)?

Back

The coordinates of Point I are (-2, -5).

Front

What are the coordinates of Point H if it is located at (1, 2)?

Back

The coordinates of Point H are (1, 2).

Front

What is the x-coordinate of the point (4, -3)?

Back

The x-coordinate is 4.

Front

What is the y-coordinate of the point (-3, 4)?

Back

The y-coordinate is 4.

Front

How do you identify the quadrant of a point with negative x and positive y coordinates?

Back

If a point has negative x and positive y coordinates, it is located in Quadrant II.

Front

What is the significance of the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

The origin is the point (0, 0) where the x-axis and y-axis intersect. It serves as the reference point for all other points on the plane.
