Copyright © 2014, 2010, 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. 2 The Rectangular Coordinate System We draw a horizontal line y and a vertical line that intersect at right angles. （直角） The horizontal line is the x-axis. The vertical line is the y -axis. x The point of intersection for these axes is their zero points, known as the origin. Copyright © 2014, 2010, 2007 Pearson Education, Inc. 3 The Rectangular Coordinate System (continued) Positive numbers are shown y to the right of the origin and 5 above the origin. Negative 4 numbers are shown to the 3 left of the origin and below 2 the origin. 1
