Chapter 5 Coordinate Plane

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.

Quadrant I (positive x, positive y), Quadrant II (negative x, positive y), Quadrant III (negative x, negative y), Quadrant IV (positive x, negative y).

A pair of numbers (x, y) that represent a point on the coordinate plane, where 'x' is the horizontal position and 'y' is the vertical position.

You use addition to combine the absolute differences of their x-coordinates and y-coordinates.

The x-coordinate indicates the horizontal position of a point on the coordinate plane.

The y-coordinate indicates the vertical position of a point on the coordinate plane.

Change the sign of the x-coordinate while keeping the y-coordinate the same.

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

(3, 2).

The x-coordinate is negative and the y-coordinate is positive.
