The Cartesian plane
The number plane, or Cartesian plane, is divided into four quadrants by two perpendicular lines called the
x
x
-axis, a horizontal line, and the
y
y
-axis, a vertical line. These axes intersect at a point called the origin. Once a unit distance has been chosen, the position of any point in the plane can be uniquely represented by an ordered pair of numbers
(x,y)
(x,y)
. For the point
(5,3)
(5,3)
, for example, 5 is the
x
x
-coordinate and 3 is the
y
y
-coordinate, sometimes called the first and second coordinates. When developing trigonometry, the four quadrants are usually called the first, second, third and fourth quadrants as shown in the following diagram.

Answer:
(i) The horizontal line that is drawn to determine the position of any point in the Cartesian plane is called the x-axis. The vertical line that is drawn to determine the position of any point in the Cartesian plane is called as y-axis.
