COORDINATE PLANE

Front

What is a coordinate plane?

Back

A coordinate plane is a two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a horizontal line (x-axis) and a vertical line (y-axis). It is used to locate points using ordered pairs (x, y).

Front

What are the axes in a coordinate plane?

Back

The two axes in a coordinate plane are the x-axis (horizontal) and the y-axis (vertical).

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

How do you plot a point on a coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

What are ordered pairs?

Back

Ordered pairs are pairs of numbers used to locate points on a coordinate plane, written in the form (x, y).

Front

What is the x-axis?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line on a coordinate plane where the y-coordinate is zero.

Front

What is the y-axis?

Back

The y-axis is the vertical line on a coordinate plane where the x-coordinate is zero.

Front

What does the point (3, 4) represent?

Back

The point (3, 4) represents a location on the coordinate plane where you move 3 units right and 4 units up from the origin.

Front

What is the area of a rectangle with length 6 units and width 4 units?

Back

The area is 24 square units, calculated by multiplying length by width (6 x 4 = 24).

Front

What is the distance between the points (2, 3) and (2, 7)?

Back

The distance is 4 units, calculated by finding the difference in the y-coordinates (7 - 3 = 4).
