Question
which undefined geometric term is described as a location on a coordinate plane that is designated by an ordered pair, (x, y)?
distance
line
plane
point
Brief Explanations
- A point in geometry is an undefined term. It has no size (no length, width, or height).
- In a coordinate plane, a point is represented by an ordered pair \((x,y)\) where \(x\) is the \(x\) - coordinate (horizontal position) and \(y\) is the \(y\) - coordinate (vertical position).
- Distance is a measure (a number) between two points, not a location. A line is a set of points that extends infinitely in two directions and is not represented by a single ordered pair. A plane is a flat, two - dimensional surface that extends infinitely and is not represented by a single ordered pair.
