FLASHCARD QUESTION

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).

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

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).

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does the ordered pair (2, 5) represent?

Back

The ordered pair (2, 5) represents a point located 2 units to the right of the origin and 5 units above the x-axis.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you identify the quadrant of a point?

Back

To identify the quadrant of a point, look at the signs of the x and y coordinates: (+, +) for Quadrant I, (-, +) for Quadrant II, (-, -) for Quadrant III, and (+, -) for Quadrant IV.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What are the coordinates of the origin?

Back

The coordinates of the origin are (0, 0).

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does it mean for a point to be '5 units to the left of the origin'?

Back

It means the x-coordinate of the point is -5, while the y-coordinate can be any value, resulting in points like (-5, y).

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the significance of the x-axis and y-axis?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line on the coordinate plane, while the y-axis is the vertical line. They are used to define the position of points.
