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.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is an ordered pair?
Back
An ordered pair is a pair of numbers used to represent a point on the coordinate plane, written in the form (x, y), where x is the horizontal position and y is the vertical position.
3.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What are the four quadrants of the coordinate plane?
Back
The four quadrants are: Quadrant I (x > 0, y > 0), Quadrant II (x < 0, y > 0), Quadrant III (x < 0, y < 0), Quadrant IV (x > 0, y < 0).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you identify the coordinates of a point on the coordinate plane?
Back
To identify the coordinates of a point, locate the point's position relative to the x-axis (horizontal) and y-axis (vertical) and express it as an ordered pair (x, y).
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the significance of the origin in the coordinate plane?
Back
The origin is the point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect, represented by the ordered pair (0, 0). It serves as the reference point for all other points on the plane.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you plot a point given its coordinates?
Back
To plot a point, start at the origin, move horizontally to the x-coordinate, and then vertically to the y-coordinate, marking the point where these two movements intersect.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the x-axis?
Back
The x-axis is the horizontal line in the coordinate plane where the y-coordinate is zero, used to measure the horizontal position of points.
