Coordinate Plane Concepts and Applications

The video tutorial introduces students to coordinate graphing, explaining key vocabulary such as coordinate plane, ordered pair, origin, x-axis, and y-axis. An airplane analogy is used to help students remember the order of plotting points. Students are given practice exercises and homework instructions to reinforce their learning.
