What are the coordinates of a point?

Back

Coordinates are a pair of numbers that define the position of a point on the coordinate plane, written as (x, y).

What does the x-axis represent?

Back

The x-axis represents the horizontal line on the coordinate plane, where the y-coordinate is zero.

Front

What does the y-axis represent?

Back

The y-axis represents the vertical line on the coordinate plane, where the x-coordinate is zero.
