CHAPTER: COORDINATE GEOMETRY
1. What is the name of horizontal and vertical lines drawn to determine the position of any point in
cartesian plane.
2. Without plotting the points, indicate the quadrants in which they lie:
i) The ordinate is 5 and abscissa is -3
ii) The abscissa is -5 and ordinate is -3
iii) The ordinate is 5 and abscissa is 2
iv) The abscissa is -4 and ordinate is 2.
3. Find the mirror image of (-2,3) using x-axis and y-axis.
7. P and Q are points (2 -7) and (-3,4) respectively. Find the value of [Abscissa Of P] – [ ordinate of Q]
8. What are the coordinates of the point which is 2 units left of y-axis and lying on x-axis.
9. What is the condition for (x, y) and (y, x) to represent the same point on the cartesian plane.
10. If abscissa of a point is zero, then the point will lie on ___________ .
11. Find the perpendicular distance of the point (5,4) from the y-axis.
Directions: In the following questions, a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R).
Mark the correct choice as:
(a) Both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true and reason (R) is the correct explanation of assertion (A).
(b) Both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true but reason (R) is not the correct explanation of assertion (A).
(C) Assertion (A) is true but reason (R) is false.
(d) Assertion (A) is false but reason (R) is true.
13. Assertion: If the ordinate of a point is equal to its abscissa, then the point lies either in the first quadrant
or in the second quadrant.
Reason: A point both of whose coordinates are negative will lie in third quadrants.
14. Assertion: The perpendicular distance of the point A(3, 4) from the y-axis is 4
Reason: The perpendicular distance of a point from y-axis is called its x-coordinate.
