Coordinate Plane

Front

What is the coordinate plane?

Back

The coordinate plane is a two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a horizontal line (x-axis) and a vertical line (y-axis), used to locate points using ordered pairs.

What are the axes in a coordinate plane?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line, and the y-axis is the vertical line in the coordinate plane.

What is 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).

How do you identify the coordinates of a point?

Back

The coordinates of a point are identified by its position relative to the x-axis and y-axis, expressed as (X, Y).

How do you find the distance between two points on the same vertical line?

Back

To find the distance between two points on the same vertical line, subtract the y-coordinates and take the absolute value.

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

Back

The distance formula is: Distance = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).

How do you plot a point on the coordinate plane?

Back

To plot a point, start at the origin, move along the x-axis to the x-coordinate, and then move vertically to the y-coordinate.
