Coordinate Grid

What is a coordinate grid?

Back

A coordinate grid is a two-dimensional plane formed by the intersection of a horizontal line (x-axis) and a vertical line (y-axis). It is used to locate points using ordered pairs (x, y).

Front

What are the x-axis and y-axis?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line on a coordinate grid, while the y-axis is the vertical line. Together, they form the basis for plotting points.

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate grid?

Back

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

Front

How do you read an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is read as (x, y), where 'x' represents the position on the x-axis and 'y' represents the position on the y-axis.

Front

What does the point (3, 2) represent on a coordinate grid?

Back

The point (3, 2) represents a location that is 3 units to the right of the origin and 2 units up.

Front

What is the purpose of a coordinate grid?

Back

A coordinate grid is used to visually represent and locate points, lines, and shapes in a two-dimensional space.

Front

What is the formula for calculating the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

The distance formula is √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).

Front

What is a quadrant in a coordinate grid?

Back

A quadrant is one of the four sections of a coordinate grid, divided by the x-axis and y-axis.

Front

What are the coordinates of the point located in the first quadrant?

Back

In the first quadrant, both x and y coordinates are positive.

What is the result of 6 ÷ 2 × 3?

Back

The result is 9.
