Coordinate Plane Concepts and Applications

This video tutorial reviews the coordinate plane, including its axes, origin, and quadrants. It explains how to identify and write coordinates for points and provides practice in plotting ordered pairs. The tutorial also covers the characteristics of each quadrant, emphasizing the sign of coordinates in each section.

What is the horizontal axis in the coordinate plane called?

• y-axis

• z-axis

• x-axis

• w-axis

Where do the x-axis and y-axis meet?

• At the origin

• At quadrant IV

• At the midpoint

• At quadrant I

Which quadrant contains both positive x and y coordinates?

• Quadrant I

• Quadrant IV

• Quadrant II

• Quadrant III

In which quadrant are both coordinates negative?

• Quadrant I

• Quadrant IV

• Quadrant II

• Quadrant III

What are the coordinates of point A if it is 4 units to the right and 5 units down?

• (-4, 5)

• (4, -5)

• (-4, -5)

• (4, 5)

If a point is at (-1, 3), which direction do you move from the origin?

• Right and down

• Left and down

• Right and up

• Left and up

What is the x-coordinate of a point that does not move horizontally?

• 2

• 0

• 1

• -1

What are the coordinates of point D if it is 1 unit to the right and 1 unit up?

• (-1, 1)

• (1, 1)

• (-1, -1)

• (1, -1)

If a point is at (0, 2), which direction do you move from the origin?

• Right 2 units

• Up 2 units

• Down 2 units

• Left 2 units

What are the coordinates of point J if it is 1 unit to the left and 3 units down?

• (-1, -3)

• (-1, 3)

• (1, 3)

• (1, -3)
