Cartesian Plane M2

How do you find the slope between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

• Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

• Slope = (x2 - x1) / (y2 - y1).

• Slope = (y1 + y2) / (x1 + x2).

• Slope = (y2 + y1) / (x2 - x1).

What is the Cartesian Plane?

• A three-dimensional coordinate system used in physics.

• A two-dimensional coordinate system where each point is defined by a pair of numerical coordinates (x, y).

• A method for graphing linear equations only.

• A type of graph used to represent statistical data.

What are the axes in the Cartesian Plane?

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

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

• The x-axis and y-axis are both horizontal lines that define the plane.

• The x-axis and y-axis are both vertical lines that define the plane.

What is the origin in the Cartesian Plane?

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

• The point (1, 1) where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.

• The point (0, 1) where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.

• The point (1, 0) where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.

What is the significance of the third quadrant?

• It contains points where both x and y coordinates are positive.

• It contains points where x is positive and y is negative.

• It contains points where both x and y coordinates are negative.

• It contains points where x is negative and y is positive.

How do you identify the coordinates of a point?

• Coordinates are written as (x, y), where 'x' is the horizontal position and 'y' is the vertical position.

• Coordinates are written as (y, x), where 'y' is the horizontal position and 'x' is the vertical position.

• Coordinates are written as (x, y, z), where 'x' is the horizontal position, 'y' is the vertical position, and 'z' is the depth.

• Coordinates are written as (x, y), where 'x' is the vertical position and 'y' is the horizontal position.

What is the midpoint formula between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

• Midpoint = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2)

• Midpoint = (x1 + x2, y1 + y2)

• Midpoint = ((x1 - x2)/2, (y1 - y2)/2)

• Midpoint = (x1, y1) + (x2, y2)

What does a positive x-coordinate indicate?

• A point located to the left of the origin.

• A point located to the right of the origin.

• A point located above the origin.

• A point located below the origin.

What is the distance formula between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

• Distance = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²)

• Distance = |x2 - x1| + |y2 - y1|

• Distance = (x2 - x1) + (y2 - y1)

• Distance = √((x2 + x1)² + (y2 + y1)²)

What does a negative y-coordinate indicate?

• A point located below the origin.

• A point located above the origin.

• A point located on the x-axis.

• A point located to the right of the origin.
