The metatarsal is basically the bone that connects your toe to the rest of your food, the phalange is the bone furthest from your foot. If you were to feel around on your foot, your big toe would have a great example. feel on the underside for the part that's larger than the rest on what could be called the "palm" of your foot, and if you feel around for a bit you'll feel that join. That's it.
I would say as I'm sure you already know where the joint actually is, without the ingenuity of the above's statement. In light of the fact that the Great toe cannot do much in the realm of rotation or very much in that of circumduction (unless you grip it with your fingers an move it that way) I would say it is probably a hinge joint as all it really allows for is flexion and extension. Hopefully that helps.
