Coordinate Plane

Front

What is the absolute value?

Back

The distance from zero.

Front

What is an ordered pair?

Back

A pair of numbers used to locate a point on the coordinate plane, written as (x, y).

Front

What does the x-coordinate represent in an ordered pair?

Back

The horizontal position on the coordinate plane.

Front

What does the y-coordinate represent in an ordered pair?

Back

The vertical position on the coordinate plane.

Front

What is the origin in the coordinate plane?

Back

The point (0, 0) where the x-axis and y-axis intersect.

Front

How do you find the distance between two points on a vertical line?

Back

Subtract the y-coordinates of the points.

Front

How do you find the distance between two points on a horizontal line?

Back

Subtract the x-coordinates of the points.

Front

What is a 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 is the first quadrant in the coordinate plane?

Back

The area where both x and y coordinates are positive.

Front

What is the second quadrant in the coordinate plane?

Back

The area where x coordinates are negative and y coordinates are positive.
