Coordinate Plane-1st Quadrant

Front

What is the coordinate plane?

Back

A two-dimensional surface where points are defined by pairs of numbers (x, y).

Front

What does the first quadrant of the coordinate plane represent?

Back

The area where both x and y coordinates are positive.

Front

How do you identify a point on the coordinate plane?

Back

By using an ordered pair (x, y) where x is the horizontal position and y is the vertical position.

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 is the x-coordinate in an ordered pair?

Back

The first number in an ordered pair that indicates the horizontal position.

Front

What is the y-coordinate in an ordered pair?

Back

The second number in an ordered pair that indicates the vertical position.

Front

How do you plot a point on the coordinate plane?

Back

Start at the origin (0,0), move along the x-axis to the x-coordinate, then move up or down to the y-coordinate.

Front

What is the origin in the coordinate plane?

Back

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

Front

What is the distance from the origin to the point (3, 4)?

Back

5 units, calculated using the Pythagorean theorem: √(3² + 4²) = 5.

Front

What is the significance of the first quadrant?

Back

It is where both x and y values are positive, representing positive values in real-world contexts.
