coordinate plane quadrant 1

Front

What is the definition of 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), used to locate points using ordered pairs (x, y).

Front

What are the coordinates of a point in Quadrant 1?

Back

In Quadrant 1, both x and y coordinates are positive.

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to locate a point on a coordinate plane, written in the form (x, y).

Front

How do you identify the x-coordinate in an ordered pair?

Back

The x-coordinate is the first number in an ordered pair (x, y) and represents the horizontal position.

Front

How do you identify the y-coordinate in an ordered pair?

Back

The y-coordinate is the second number in an ordered pair (x, y) and represents the vertical position.

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, serving as the reference point for all other points.

Front

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

Back

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

Front

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

Back

The midpoint formula is M = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2).

Front

What does it mean for a point to be on the x-axis?

Back

A point is on the x-axis if its y-coordinate is 0, represented as (x, 0).

Front

What does it mean for a point to be on the y-axis?

Back

A point is on the y-axis if its x-coordinate is 0, represented as (0, y).
