Graphing on coordinate plane

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), used to locate points using ordered pairs.

Front

What are the four quadrants of the coordinate plane?

Back

Quadrant I (x > 0, y > 0), Quadrant II (x < 0, y > 0), Quadrant III (x < 0, y < 0), Quadrant IV (x > 0, y < 0).

Front

What are the coordinates of the origin?

Back

(0, 0)

Front

How do you identify a point on the x-axis?

Back

A point on the x-axis has a y-coordinate of 0, e.g., (x, 0).

Front

How do you identify a point on the y-axis?

Back

A point on the y-axis has an x-coordinate of 0, e.g., (0, y).

Front

What is the x-coordinate in the ordered pair (3, 5)?

Back

3

Front

What is the y-coordinate in the ordered pair (3, 5)?

Back

5

Front

Which quadrant contains the point (2, 5)?

Back

Quadrant I.

Front

What does it mean if a point has negative coordinates?

Back

It means the point is located in either Quadrant II (negative x, positive y) or Quadrant III (negative x, negative y).

Front

What is the distance between the points (1, 2) and (1, 5)?

Back

The distance is 3 units (vertical distance).
