Cartesian Coordinate System
The Cartesian Coordinate System is a two-dimensional coordinate system that specifies each point uniquely in a plane by a set of numerical coordinates, which are the signed distances from the point to two fixed perpendicular oriented lines, measured in the same unit of length. These lines are called the x-axis and y-axis.
Quadrants
The Cartesian plane is divided into four quadrants:
- Quadrant I: The upper-right quadrant where both the x-coordinate and y-coordinate are positive.
- Quadrant II: The upper-left quadrant where the x-coordinate is negative and the y-coordinate is positive.
- Quadrant III: The lower-left quadrant where both the x-coordinate and y-coordinate are negative.
- Quadrant IV: The lower-right quadrant where the x-coordinate is positive and the y-coordinate is negative.
