Coordinate Plane Concepts

Front

Coordinate Plane

Back

Formed by the intersection of two number lines, the horizontal axis and the vertical axis.

Front

X-Axis

Back

The horizontal axis on the coordinate plane.

Front

Y-Axis

Back

The vertical axis on the coordinate plane.

Front

Quadrants

Back

The four regions into which the x and y-axis separate the coordinate plane.

Front

Origin

Back

The point at which the x and y-axis intersect on the coordinate plane: (0,0).

Front

Ordered Pair

Back

The set of numbers, or coordinates, written in the form (x, y).

Front

X-Coordinate

Back

The x-value of an ordered pair, represents the horizontal placement of the point.

Front

Y-Coordinate

Back

The y-value of an ordered pair, represents the vertical placement of the point.

Front

Relation

Back

A set of ordered pairs. Example: {(5, -1), (-6, 2), (4, 0)}

Front

Domain

Back

The set of x-values within the ordered pairs of a relation. Example: D: {-6, 4, 5}
