Ordered Pairs/Coordinate Plane

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to locate a point on a coordinate plane, written in the form (x, y).

Front

What does the first number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

The first number represents the x-coordinate, which indicates the horizontal position on the coordinate plane.

Front

What does the second number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

The second number represents the y-coordinate, which indicates the vertical position on the coordinate plane.

Front

How do you plot the point (3, 2) on a coordinate plane?

Back

Start at the origin (0, 0), move 3 units to the right (x-axis), and then move 2 units up (y-axis).

Front

What is the coordinate pair for the point located 4 units right and 3 units up from the origin?

Back

The coordinate pair is (4, 3).

Front

If a point is located at (0, 0), what is this point called?

Back

This point is called the origin.

Front

What letter is located at coordinates (2, 3) if the letters are arranged in a grid?

Back

Z.

Front

What are the coordinates of point X if it is located at (4, 4)?

Back

The coordinates of point X are (4, 4).

Front

How do you find the coordinates of a letter on a grid?

Back

Locate the letter's position by counting the horizontal (x) and vertical (y) distances from the origin.

Front

What is the coordinate pair for letter N if it is at (1, 1)?

Back

The coordinate pair for letter N is (1, 1).
