Coordinate Planes Review

Front

What are coordinates?

Back

Coordinates are a set of values that show an exact position on a coordinate plane, typically represented as (x, y).

Front

What is the x-axis?

Back

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

Front

What is the y-axis?

Back

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

Front

What does it mean to reflect a point over the y-axis?

Back

Reflecting a point over the y-axis means to flip the point across the y-axis, changing the sign of the x-coordinate.

Front

How do you find the distance between two points on a coordinate plane?

Back

The distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) can be found using the formula: Distance = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²).

Front

What are the coordinates of Point A if it is located at (-1, 2)?

Back

The coordinates of Point A are (-1, 2).

Front

If a point has coordinates (5, 2⅓), what is the y-coordinate?

Back

The y-coordinate is 2⅓.

Front

What does a negative x-coordinate indicate on a coordinate plane?

Back

A negative x-coordinate indicates that the point is located to the left of the y-axis.

Front

What does a negative y-coordinate indicate on a coordinate plane?

Back

A negative y-coordinate indicates that the point is located below the x-axis.

Front

If Point A is at (3, 2) and Point B is at (3, -3), what is the distance between them?

Back

The distance is 5 units.
