The vertical axis is called the x-axis and the horizontal axis is called the y-axis what entire plane containing these is called the xy-plane?
legends a plane would be called the xy-plane if it had the x and y points on it Y axis
The x-axis and the y-axis divide a coordinate plane into four?
Quadrants.
What is the Definition of Cartesian coordinate system?
A system for identifying points on a plane or in space by their coordinates is called a Cartesian coordinate system.In a plane (2-dimensional), the Cartesian coordinate system is determined by the two perpendicular directed lines Ox as x-axis, and Oy as y-axis (where the point of intersection O is the origin) and the given unit length.For any point P in the plane, let M and Nbe points on the x-axis and y-axis such that PM is parallel to y-axis and PN is parallel to x-axis. If OM = x and ON = y, then (x, y) are the coordinates of the point P in this Cartesian coordinate system.Normally, Ox and Oy are chosen so that an an anticlockwise rotation of one right angle takes the positive x-direction to the positive y-direction.In 3-dimensional space, the Cartesian coordinate system is determined by the three mutually perpendicular directed lines Ox as x-axis, and Oy as y-axis,and OZ as z-axis (where the point of intersection O is the origin).For any point P in a space, let L be the point where the plane through P, parallel to the plane containing the y-axis and z-axis, meets the x-axis. Alternatively, L is the point on the x-axis such that PL is perpendicular to the x-axis. Let M and N be points on the y-axis and z-axis. The points L, M, and N are in fact three of vertixes of the cuboid with three of its edges along the coordinate axes and with O and P as opposite vertixes. If OL = x and OM = y, and ON = z, then (x, y, z) are the coordinates of the point P in this Cartesian coordinate system.
In the ordered pair x and y the x is called the origin?
No, the origin is the point where the x-axis and y-axis meet in the coordinate plane. The x value of an ordered pair is called the abscissa (the y value is called the ordinate).
This is one of four sections formed by the intersection of the x-axis and y-axis on a Cartesian coordinate plane?
Quadrant.
