Coordinate Plane RTI

Front

What is a coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

What are the four quadrants of a 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).

Front

In which quadrant is point (3, 2) located?

Back

Point (3, 2) is located in Quadrant I.

Front

In which quadrant is point (-4, 5) located?

Back

Point (-4, 5) is located in Quadrant II.

Front

In which quadrant is point (-2, -3) located?

Back

Point (-2, -3) is located in Quadrant III.

Front

In which quadrant is point (5, -1) located?

Back

Point (5, -1) is located in Quadrant IV.

Front

What does the x-coordinate represent in an ordered pair?

Back

The x-coordinate represents the horizontal position of a point on the coordinate plane.

Front

What does the y-coordinate represent in an ordered pair?

Back

The y-coordinate represents the vertical position of a point on the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

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

Back

A point with positive x and negative y coordinates is located in Quadrant IV.
