This math topic focuses on identifying and naming axes on a Cartesian grid. It includes questions about recognizing both positive and negative directions of the X and Y axes. Each question presents an image of a Cartesian plane, where one of the axes is highlighted, and students need to determine whether it is the X or Y axis and if it represents the positive or negative direction. The problems aim to strengthen the foundational understanding of Cartesian coordinates and axis identification.
