Coordinate Plane and Quadrants

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).

Front

What are the four quadrants of the coordinate plane?

Back

Quadrant I (positive x, positive y), Quadrant II (negative x, positive y), Quadrant III (negative x, negative y), Quadrant IV (positive x, negative y).

Front

Where is Quadrant I located?

Back

Top right section of the coordinate plane where both x and y coordinates are positive.

Front

Where is Quadrant II located?

Back

Top left section of the coordinate plane where x coordinates are negative and y coordinates are positive.

Front

Where is Quadrant III located?

Back

Bottom left section of the coordinate plane where both x and y coordinates are negative.

Front

Where is Quadrant IV located?

Back

Bottom right section of the coordinate plane where x coordinates are positive and y coordinates are negative.

Front

What are the coordinates of a point in Quadrant I?

Back

Both x and y coordinates are positive (e.g., (3, 4)).

Front

What are the coordinates of a point in Quadrant II?

Back

x coordinate is negative and y coordinate is positive (e.g., (-3, 4)).

Front

What are the coordinates of a point in Quadrant III?

Back

Both x and y coordinates are negative (e.g., (-3, -4)).

Front

What are the coordinates of a point in Quadrant IV?

Back

x coordinate is positive and y coordinate is negative (e.g., (3, -4)).
