What is a coordinate plane?

A coordinate plane is a two-dimensional plane formed by two intersecting perpendicular lines, known as the x-axis and y-axis, used to locate points with pairs of numerical coordinates. It is commonly used in mathematics and graphing to represent and identify the position of points in space.

How do you label the x-axis and y-axis?

To label the x-axis and y-axis on a graph, you should write the variable names that each axis represents. The x-axis is typically the horizontal axis and it represents the independent variable, while the y-axis is the vertical axis representing the dependent variable. Write the variable names along each axis, with the x-axis label below the horizontal axis and the y-axis label to the left of the vertical axis.

What are the coordinates of the origin on a coordinate plane?

The coordinates of the origin on a coordinate plane are (0,0).

How do you plot a point on a coordinate plane?

To plot a point on a coordinate plane, identify the x-coordinate (horizontal value) and the y-coordinate (vertical value) of the point. Then, locate the x-coordinate on the horizontal axis and the y-coordinate on the vertical axis. The point where these two values intersect is where you will plot the point on the coordinate plane.

What is the purpose of plotting points on a coordinate plane?

The purpose of plotting points on a coordinate plane is to visually represent relationships between variables or data points. By charting points on a grid with an x-axis and y-axis, patterns, trends, and correlations can be easily identified, making it easier to analyze and interpret complex information or mathematical relationships. It helps in making predictions, solving problems, and gaining a better understanding of the underlying data set.

How do you find the distance between two points on a coordinate plane?

To find the distance between two points on a coordinate plane, you can use the distance formula: ?((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²). This formula calculates the straight-line distance between two points by subtracting the x and y coordinates of one point from the x and y coordinates of the other point, squaring the differences, summing the squares, and then taking the square root of the result.

What is the formula for finding the midpoint of a line segment on a coordinate plane?

The formula for finding the midpoint of a line segment on a coordinate plane is [(x? + x?) / 2, (y? + y?) / 2], where (x?, y?) and (x?, y?) are the coordinates of the endpoints of the line segment. This formula calculates the average of the x-coordinates and the average of the y-coordinates to determine the coordinates of the midpoint.

How do you determine the coordinates of a point reflected over the x-axis?

To determine the coordinates of a point reflected over the x-axis, you keep the x-coordinate the same and change the sign of the y-coordinate. So, if the original point has coordinates (x, y), the reflected point will have coordinates (x, -y).

How do you determine the coordinates of a point reflected over the y-axis?

To determine the coordinates of a point reflected over the y-axis, you simply change the sign of the x-coordinate while keeping the y-coordinate unchanged. If the original point has coordinates (x, y), the reflected point will have coordinates (-x, y).

How do you determine the coordinates of a point reflected over the origin?

To determine the coordinates of a point reflected over the origin, you simply switch the signs of the existing coordinates. For example, if the original point's coordinates are (x, y), the reflected point's coordinates will be (-x, -y) after the reflection over the origin.
