A coordinate plane is a grid formed by two number lines. The horizontal number line is called the

x-axis

.

The vertical number line is called the

y-axis

.

The two axes meet at the

origin.

The origin is at zero on both number lines.

The axes divide the coordinate plane into four

quadrants.

The quadrants are named using Roman numerals.
