Real Number Line

The real number system can be visualized as a horizontal line that

extends from special point called the both directions towards infinity
a
origin in

Rectangular Coordinate System ( Ross

The of two lines that The

Rcs consists real numbers intersect at
right angle .

horizontal number line is called ( usually ) the x-axis and the vertical number line
,

is called ( usually ) the y-axis .

These two number lines define a flat surface
called a plane refereed

as a coordinate plane ,
or an

The coordinate axes divide the plane into four

parts called the first ,

We call a the x - coordinate ( or abscissa) of P

,
and b the
y
- coordinate ( or ordinate ) .

We
say
that P has coordinates ( a. b ) and refer to the point ( a. b ) or the point P ( a. b) .
