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).

Front

What are the axes in a coordinate plane?

Back

The x-axis (horizontal) and y-axis (vertical) are the two lines that define the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

How many quadrants are in a coordinate plane?

Back

There are four quadrants in a coordinate plane.

Front

What is Quadrant I?

Back

The area where both x and y coordinates are positive.

Front

What is Quadrant II?

Back

The area where x coordinates are negative and y coordinates are positive.

Front

What is Quadrant III?

Back

The area where both x and y coordinates are negative.

Front

What is Quadrant IV?

Back

The area where x coordinates are positive and y coordinates are negative.

Front

How do you identify a point in the coordinate plane?

Back

A point is identified by an ordered pair (x, y), where x is the horizontal position and y is the vertical position.

Front

What does the point (2, 3) represent?

Back

A point located 2 units to the right of the origin and 3 units up.
