The Coordinate Plane Quadrants. A coordinate plane is a two-dimensional plane formed by the intersection of a vertical line y-axis and a horizontal line x-axis. The x and y axes divide the coordinate plane into four sections called quadrants.
The coordinate plane has two axes. It also provides example of points that lie on an axisComplete Video Library. The axes intersect to form four infinite areas or quadrants.
The quadrants are separated by the x- and y-axes and are labeled I through IV starting in the upper right quadrant and going counterclockwise as shown in.
An ordered pair consists of two values x and y. In geometry graphing is done using two coordinate axes namely the x-axis and y-axis to identify the location of any point. A quick introductory video explaining the coordinate plane the different quadrants and how to plot a a set of coordinates. Quadrant II is the top-left area.
