Graphing on the Coordinate Plane

Front

What are the coordinates for the origin in the coordinate plane?

Back

(0,0)

Front

How do you graph Point A at (1, 5) on the coordinate plane?

Back

Start at the origin, move 1 unit right on the X-axis, and then 5 units up on the Y-axis.

Front

How many quadrants are there in a coordinate plane?

Back

4

Front

When plotting the point (-4, 3), what is the movement along the x-axis and y-axis?

Back

4 units left then 3 units up.

Front

Which statement is NOT true about a coordinate grid?

Back

The x-coordinate is the second number in an ordered pair.

Front

What is the definition of a 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 coordinates of a point located 3 units left and 2 units down from the origin?

Back

(-3, -2)

Front

What is the significance of the x-axis in a coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

What is the significance of the y-axis in a coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

How do you identify the quadrant in which a point lies?

Back

By examining the signs of the x and y coordinates: Quadrant I (+,+), Quadrant II (-,+), Quadrant III (-,-), Quadrant IV (+,-).
