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).

Front

What are the axes in a coordinate plane?

Back

The x-axis is the horizontal line, and the y-axis is the vertical line on a coordinate plane.

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 do you read coordinates?

Back

Coordinates are read as (x, y), where 'x' is the horizontal position and 'y' is the vertical position.

Front

What does a positive x-coordinate indicate?

Back

A positive x-coordinate indicates a position to the right of the origin.

Front

What does a negative y-coordinate indicate?

Back

A negative y-coordinate indicates a position below the origin.

Front

What are quadrants in a coordinate plane?

Back

Quadrants are the four sections of the coordinate plane, divided by the x-axis and y-axis.

Front

What are the coordinates of the point in Quadrant I?

Back

In Quadrant I, both x and y coordinates are positive.

Front

What are the coordinates of the point in Quadrant II?

Back

In Quadrant II, x coordinates are negative and y coordinates are positive.

Front

What are the coordinates of the point in Quadrant III?

Back

In Quadrant III, both x and y coordinates are negative.
