Coordinate Grid Practice

Front

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), used to locate points using ordered pairs.

Front

What does an ordered pair represent in a coordinate grid?

Back

An ordered pair, written as (x, y), represents the position of a point on the coordinate grid, where 'x' is the horizontal position and 'y' is the vertical position.

Front

How do you identify the location of a point on a coordinate grid?

Back

To identify a point, start at the origin (0,0), move along the x-axis to the x-coordinate, and then move vertically to the y-coordinate.

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 coordinates (0,0).

Front

What are the coordinates of Point A if it is located 3 units right and 2 units up from the origin?

Back

(3, 2)

Front

If Point B is at (6, 3), what is its x-coordinate?

Back

6

Front

What is the distance between the points (2, 3) and (2, 7) on a coordinate grid?

Back

4 units (vertical distance) because the x-coordinates are the same.

Front

How many units do you move horizontally to get from (4, 2) to (4, 6)?

Back

0 units (no horizontal movement, only vertical movement).

Front

What is the y-coordinate of Point C if it is located at (9, 3)?

Back

3

Front

If you move from (3, 3) to (3, 6), how many square sides do you move?

Back

3 square sides (upward movement).
