Coordinate Plane

Front

What is the coordinate plane?

Back

A two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a horizontal number line (x-axis) and a vertical number line (y-axis).

Front

What are the axes in a coordinate plane?

Back

The x-axis (horizontal) and y-axis (vertical) are the two perpendicular lines that define the coordinate plane.

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

A pair of numbers (x, y) used to locate a point on the coordinate plane.

Front

What does the origin represent in a coordinate plane?

Back

The point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect, represented as (0, 0).
