What is a coordinate grid?

Back

A coordinate grid is a two-dimensional plane 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 coordinates of a point?

Back

Coordinates are a pair of numbers (x, y) that define the position of a point on a coordinate grid, where 'x' represents the horizontal position and 'y' represents the vertical position.

What does the X-axis represent?

Back

The X-axis represents the horizontal line in a coordinate grid, where the value of 'y' is zero.

What does the Y-axis represent?

Back

The Y-axis represents the vertical line in a coordinate grid, where the value of 'x' is zero.

What is the origin in a coordinate grid?

Back

The origin is the point (0, 0) where the X-axis and Y-axis intersect.

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

Back

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