The coordinate plane is made up of two intersecting axes, the ​ (a)   and the ​ (b)   . The two axes intersect forming a right angle. The intersection of the two axes is called the ​ (c)   with the ordered pair of (0,0). The coordinate plane is divided into ​ (d)   spaces called ​ (e)   .

• x-axis

• y-axis

• origin

• four

• quadrants

The four quadrants of the coordinate plane are numbered using Roman numerals beginning in the upper right corner. The quadrants are numbered in a counter-clockwise direction. Each of the quadrants has a specific type of ordered pair. Match the quadrant to the given ordered pair.

(5,-8) ​ (b)  

(6,9) ​ ​ (c)  

(-2,-7) ​ (d)  

• Quadrant II

• Quadrant IV

• Quadrant I

• Quadrant III
