About this coordinate graph paper
Coordinate graph paper is a grid with the x-axis and y-axis drawn through the middle and numbered every five squares. It saves you from ruling axes by hand every time you need to graph something.
Use it to plot points, graph linear equations, show reflections and translations, or work through any homework that starts with “draw a coordinate plane”.
What it’s good for
- Plotting points and ordered pairs
- Graphing linear and quadratic equations
- Reflections, rotations and translations
- Algebra and pre-algebra worksheets
How to print it
Pick a size above and open the PDF. In the print dialog choose the same paper size and set the scale to 100% (Actual size), so the grid comes out at exactly 5 mm squares with numbered x/y axes.
Questions
Where is the origin?
In the centre of the page, where the two darker axis lines cross.
How are the axes numbered?
Every fifth line is labelled (5, 10, 15 …), with negative numbers to the left and below the origin.
