Labelling

Label each quadrant and each axis.

Drag labels to their correct position on the image

Quadrant 3

Quadrant 4

Graphing a Point

Always written in the form (x,y)

​

The x-value tells us to

move left or right

​

The y-value tells us to

move up or down

Identifying Basic Slopes

Slope: the 'steepness' of a line.

​

There are FOUR basic categories for SLOPES

POSITIVE SLOPE

NEGATIVE SLOPE

SLOPE OF ZERO

UNDEFINED SLOPE

Match

Match the following graph with its slope.

Positive Slope

Negative Slope

Slope of Zero

Undefined Slope

• Positive Slope

• Negative Slope

• Slope of Zero

• Undefined Slope
