To identify the location of a point in 2-d space you need to know the distances of the point from a fixed reference point (the origin). Since the space is 2-dimensional, you need to know the distances in 2 directions. These directions form the axes. They are usually orthogonal (at 90 degrees to one another) but they need not be. For example, axes for isometric charts are at 60 degree angle.
What else can I help you with?
Where the x and y axis cross in a coordinate plane?
The x and y axis cross at (0,0) on the coordinate plane.
What is the horizontal axis in a coordinate plane?
It is the x axis
What is a coordinate plane in math?
A coordinate plane consists of the y axis up and left and the x axis right and down
The horizontal or vertical number line on the 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.
What is the independent axis?
I believe you mean the x-axis, the horizontal axis on a coordinate plane
