coordinate plane – a two-dimensional graph created when a horizontal number line intersects with a vertical number line   

coordinates – a pair of numbers that indicates the position of a point in a coordinate plane  
ordered pair – the point (x, y)   
quadrant – one of the four areas in the coordinate plane   
x-axis – the horizontal number line in a coordinate plane  
y-axis – the vertical number line in a coordinate plane

The coordinate plane is a two-dimensional graph that is created by the intersection of a horizontal number line (x-axis) and a vertical number line (y-axis). It is used to locate and plot points in relation to these axes.

Coordinates are pairs of numbers that indicate the position of a point in the coordinate plane. The first number represents the horizontal distance from the origin (x-coordinate), and the second number represents the vertical distance from the origin (y-coordinate). These coordinates are written as an ordered pair in the form (x, y).

A quadrant is one of the four areas in the coordinate plane. The axes divide the plane into four quadrants: the first quadrant is located in the upper right, the second quadrant is in the upper left, the third quadrant is in the lower left, and the fourth quadrant is in the lower right.

The x-axis is the horizontal number line in the coordinate plane. It extends to the left and right of the origin and is used to measure the horizontal distance of a point from the origin.

The y-axis is the vertical number line in the coordinate plane. It extends up and down from the origin and is used to measure the vertical distance of a point from the origin.
