The vertical and horizontal lines that make up the quadrants of a coordinate plane.
The horizontal number line on a coordinate plane is called the x-axis, and the vertical number line on a coordinate plane is called the y-axis.
X has two lines that cross. Think of a-cross. X axis is horizontal on a coordinate plane. Y has a vertical line... the Y axis is the vertical on a coordinate plane.
It is the x axis

"The" vertical line is wrong; there are lots of vertical lines on a coordinate plane. In the usual x-y coordinate system, such a line has an equation of the form:x = a (for some constant "a"); for example: x = 3
The coordinate plane is formed by the intersection of a vertical and a horizontal number line. What is the horizontal number line called?
The horizontal line in the Cartesian plane is called the x-axis or x-coordinate.
Horizontal, vertical, lateral
X-axis
The x-coordinate is the horizontal part of what is known as the cartesian plane, which is the 2D representation of dimensioning. This is a cartesian plane: /\ <------------- that's an arrow, which means it extends indefinitely. | | | <-----------|----------> X ( this is the x coordinate, the horizontal part of the cartesian plane) | | | V Y (This is the y coordinate, the vertical part) jhj
