Module 4.5 Review: Coordinate Plane

Front

What is a coordinate plane?

Back

A coordinate plane is a two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a horizontal line (x-axis) and a vertical line (y-axis). It is used to locate points using ordered pairs (x, y).

Front

What are the coordinates of a point?

Back

Coordinates are a pair of numbers (x, y) that define the position of a point on the coordinate plane, where 'x' represents the horizontal position and 'y' represents the vertical position.

Front

What is the origin in a coordinate plane?

Back

The origin is the point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect, represented by the coordinates (0, 0).

Front

How many quadrants are in a coordinate plane?

Back

There are 4 quadrants in a coordinate plane.

Front

What is Quadrant I?

Back

Quadrant I is the section of the coordinate plane where both x and y coordinates are positive (x > 0, y > 0).

Front

What is Quadrant II?

Back

Quadrant II is the section of the coordinate plane where x coordinates are negative and y coordinates are positive (x < 0, y > 0).

Front

What is Quadrant III?

Back

Quadrant III is the section of the coordinate plane where both x and y coordinates are negative (x < 0, y < 0).

Front

What is Quadrant IV?

Back

Quadrant IV is the section of the coordinate plane where x coordinates are positive and y coordinates are negative (x > 0, y < 0).

Front

How do you plot a point on the coordinate plane?

Back

To plot a point, start at the origin (0, 0), move horizontally to the x-coordinate, and then vertically to the y-coordinate.

Front

What does the point (0, y) represent?

Back

The point (0, y) represents a point on the y-axis, where 'y' can be any value.
