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 axes in the coordinate plane?

Back

The x-axis (horizontal) and y-axis (vertical) that divide the coordinate plane into four quadrants.

Front

What are quadrants in the coordinate plane?

Back

The four sections created by the x-axis and y-axis, labeled as Quadrant I, II, III, and IV.

Front

Which quadrant contains the point (2, 5)?

Back

Quadrant I.

Front

What are ordered pairs?

Back

A pair of numbers (x, y) that represent the coordinates of a point in the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the origin in the coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

How do you identify the coordinates of a point?

Back

By using the format (x, y), where 'x' is the horizontal distance from the origin and 'y' is the vertical distance.

Front

What are the coordinates for POINT I if it is located at (-2, -5)?

Back

The coordinates are (-2, -5).

Front

How do you find a point located 5 units to the left of the origin and 3 units below the x-axis?

Back

The coordinates would be (-5, -3).

Front

What is the significance of the signs in coordinates?

Back

Positive x-values indicate points to the right of the origin, negative x-values indicate points to the left; positive y-values indicate points above the x-axis, negative y-values indicate points below.
