Coordinate Plane

Front

What is the coordinate plane?

Back

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.

Front

What are the four quadrants of the coordinate plane?

Back

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

What is an ordered pair?

Back

A pair of numbers (x, y) that represent a point's position on the coordinate plane.

Front

Which quadrant contains the point (2, 5)?

Back

Quadrant I.

Front

Which quadrant contains the point (-3, 12)?

Back

Quadrant II.

Front

What do the axes of the coordinate plane divide it into?

Back

Four sections called quadrants.

Front

What is the origin in the coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

What is the x-axis?

Back

The horizontal line on the coordinate plane where y = 0.

Front

What is the y-axis?

Back

The vertical line on the coordinate plane where x = 0.

Front

In which quadrant is the point (5, -3)?

Back

Quadrant IV.
