Coordinate Plane: Plotting Points

  1. Always start at the Origin (0, 0)
  2. x-coordinate: Move right for positive (+), left for negative (-)
  3. y-coordinate: Move up for positive (+), down for negative (-)

Words: Coordinate plane (Plano cartesiano)Ordered pair (Par ordenado)Origin (Origen)Quadrant (Cuadrante)Reflection (Reflexión)

Part 1Understand the idea
  1. 1Circle the letter of the best answer. Show how you know.

    A point is at (6, 2). What does the 6 tell you?

    1. AMove 6 units to the right
    2. BMove 6 units up
    3. CMove 6 units to the left
    4. DThe point is in Quadrant 6
