- Coordinate Plane: A two-dimensional surface formed by the intersection of a vertical line (y-axis) and a horizontal line (x-axis), used to locate points using ordered pairs.
- x-axis: The horizontal number line on a coordinate plane that runs left to right, used to measure the horizontal position of a point.
- y-axis: The vertical number line on a coordinate plane that runs up and down, used to measure the vertical position of a point.
- Quadrants: The four regions created by the intersection of the x-axis and y-axis on the coordinate plane, numbered I, II, III, and IV counterclockwise from the top right.
- Origin: The point where the x-axis and y-axis intersect, located at coordinates (0, 0).
- Ordered Pair: A pair of numbers (x, y) used to locate a point on the coordinate plane, where x is the horizontal distance and y is the vertical distance from the origin.
- x-Coordinate: The first number in an ordered pair, representing the horizontal position of a point relative to the origin along the x-axis.
