A conventional coordinate plane is a plane, which is a flat surface that extends infinitely far in every direction.
The plane contains a set of coordinate axes: these are two number-lines that are mutually perpendicular and meet at a point known as the origin. One of the axes, called the x-axis, is normally horizontal and measures distances from the origin, with positive distances to the right of the origin. The other axis, called the y-axis, is vertical and measures distances from the origin, with positive distances towards the top of the page from the origin.
The location of any point in the plane is uniquely identified by an ordered pair representing the signed distances along the x- and y-axis. The ordered pair is referred to as the coordinates of the point.

What is a coordinate plane that has no breaks in it?
A coordinate plane! If it has one or more breaks in it is not a coordinate plane but only a part of one.
Numbers on the coordinate plane?
An ordered pair of numbers on the coordinate plane denotes a point.
What is used to locate a point on the coordinate plane?
What is used to locate a point in a coordinate plane
Definition of coordinate pair?
A coordinate pair is a set of two coordinates that plot the location on a Cartesian plane. The pair consists of the x-axis location followed by the y-axis location.
What is a pair of numbers used to locate a point in the coordinate plane?
Ordered pairThe coordinates! Guess how come the plane got to be called the coordinate plane!
