Coordinate Plane

Front

What is the coordinate plane?

Back

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.

Front

What are the axes in the coordinate plane?

Back

The x-axis (horizontal) and y-axis (vertical) that divide the coordinate plane into four quadrants.

Front

What are quadrants in the coordinate plane?

Back

The four sections created by the x-axis and y-axis, labeled as Quadrant I, Quadrant II, Quadrant III, and Quadrant IV.

Front

In which quadrant is the point (3, 4) located?

Back

Quadrant I.

Front

In which quadrant is the point (-5, -2) located?

Back

Quadrant III.

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

A pair of numbers (x, y) that represent the coordinates of a point in the coordinate plane.

Front

What does the first number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

The x-coordinate, which indicates the horizontal position on the coordinate plane.

Front

What does the second number in an ordered pair represent?

Back

The y-coordinate, which indicates the vertical position on the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the origin in the coordinate plane?

Back

The point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect, represented by the coordinates (0, 0).

Front

Which quadrant contains points with positive x and negative y coordinates?

Back

Quadrant IV.
