Coordinate Plane

Front

What are the four quadrants of the coordinate plane?

Back

Quadrant I (positive x, positive y), Quadrant II (negative x, positive y), Quadrant III (negative x, negative y), Quadrant IV (positive x, negative y).

Front

How do you identify the location of a point on the coordinate plane?

Back

By using an ordered pair (x, y) where 'x' is the horizontal position and 'y' is the vertical position.

Front

What is the definition of an ordered pair?

Back

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to locate a point on the coordinate plane, written in the form (x, y).

Front

What does the x-axis represent in the coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

What does the y-axis represent in the coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

In which quadrant would you find the point (3, -2)?

Back

Quadrant IV.

Front

What is the significance of the origin in the coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

How do you determine the quadrant of a point with negative x and positive y coordinates?

Back

It is located in Quadrant II.

Front

What is the relationship between the coordinates of a point and its position on the coordinate plane?

Back

The coordinates determine the exact location of the point based on its distance from the x-axis and y-axis.

Front

What is the formula for calculating the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) on the coordinate plane?

Back

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