Question 3: Mark the correct alternative in each of the following:

The point of intersect of the coordinate axes is

(a) ordinate

(b) abscissa

(c) quadrant

(d) origin

Solution: As we know that:

The distance of a point from y−axis is called its x−coordinate or abscissa.

The distance of a point from x−axis is called its y−coordinate or ordinate.

The coordinate axes divide the plane into four equal parts which are known as quadrants.

The point of intersection of the coordinate axes is called the origin and the coordinates of origin are (0,0)

Example is shown in the graph



Thus the correct answer is (d).

Question 4: The abscissa and ordinate of the origin are

(a) $(0,0)$

(b) $(1,0)$

(c) $(0,1)$

(d) $(1,1)$

Solution: As we know that:

The distance of a point from y−axis is called its x−coordinate or abscissa.

The distance of a point from x−axis is called its y−coordinate or ordinate.

The coordinate axes divide the plane into four equal parts which are known as quadrants.

The point of intersection of the coordinate axes is called the origin and the coordinates of origin are(0,0)



The origin is shown in the graph

Thus the correct answer is (a).

Question 5: The measure of the angle between the coordinate axes is

(a) 0°

(b) 90°

(c) 180°

(d) 360°

Solution: As we know that $x$-axis and $y$-axis intersect to each other at point $\mathrm{O}$ and perpendicular to each other. So, the angle between the coordinate axes is $90^{\circ}$



Thus the correct answer is (b).

Question 6: A point whose abscissa and ordinate are 2 and −5 respectively, lies in

(a) First quadrant

(b) Second quadrant

(c) Third quadrant

(d) Fourth quadrant

Solution: As shown in graph that a point whose abscissa and ordinate are 2 and $-5$ respectively lies in the fourth quadrant.

Thus the correct answer is (a).

Question 8: The ordinate of any point on x-axis is

(a) 0

(b) 1

(c) −1

(d) any number

Solution: We know that the $y$-coordinates of every point on $x$-axis are zero. So, the coordinates of any point on the $x$-axis are of the form $(x, 0)$.

Thus the correct answer is (a).

Question 9: The abscissa of any point on y-axis is

(a) 0

(b) 1

(c) −1

(d) any number

Solution: We know that the $x-$ coordinate of every point on $y$-axis is zero. So, the coordinates of any point on the $x-$ axis are of the form $(0, y)$.

Thus the correct answer is (a).

Question 10 : The abscissa of a point is positive in the

(a) First and Second quadrant

(b) Second and Third quadrant

(c) Third and Fourth quadrant

(d) Fourth and First quadrant

Solution: The signs of coordinates $(x, y)$ of a point in various quadrants are shown in the following graph:

Question 11 : A point whose abscissa is $-3$ and ordinate 2 lies in

(a) First quadrant

(b) Second quadrant

(c) Third quadrant

(d) Fourth quadrant

Solution: As we know that

In the first quadrant : $x>0, y>0$

In the second quadrant $: x<0, y>0$

In the third quadrant : $x<0, y<0$

In the fourth quadrant : $x>0, y<0$



The point whose abscissa is $-3$ which is negative and ordinate 2 is positive, so this point lies in the second quadrant.

(a) 4

(b) 3

(c) 5

(d) none of these

$\mathrm{OP}=\sqrt{\mathrm{OA}^{2}+\mathrm{AP}^{2}}$

$=\sqrt{4^{2}+3^{2}}$

$=\sqrt{16+9}$

$=\sqrt{25}$

$=5$

Thus the distance of the point $\mathrm{P}(4,3)$ from the origin is 5 .

Question 16: The area of the triangle formed by the points $A(2,0) B(6,0)$ and $C(4,6)$ is

(a) 24 sq. units

(b) $12 \mathrm{sq}$. units

(c) 10 sq. units

(d) none of these

Solution: Given that points $\mathrm{A}(2,0), \mathrm{B}(6,0)$ and $\mathrm{C}(4,6)$ form a triangle which is shown in the figure. We are asked to find the area of the triangle $\triangle \mathrm{ABC} .$



Given that

$\mathrm{OA}=2$

and $\mathrm{OB}=6$

Hence:

$A B=O B-O A$

$=6-2$

$=4$

$C D=6$

By using formula,

$\Delta A B C=\frac{1}{2} \times A B \times C D$

$=\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 6$

$=12$ squnits

Thus the correct answer is (b).

Question 17: The area of the triangle formed by the points $P(0,1), Q(0,5)$ and $R(3,4)$ is

(a) $16 \mathrm{sq}$. units

(b) 8 sq. units

(c) 4 sq. units

(d) 6 sq. units

Solution: Given that the points $\mathrm{P}(0,1), \mathrm{Q}(0,5)$ and $\mathrm{R}(3,4)$ form a triangle.

We are asked to find the area of the triangle $\triangle \mathrm{PQR}$ which is shown in the figure.



Given that

$\mathrm{OP}=1$

and $\mathrm{OQ}=5$

Hence:

$\mathrm{PQ}=\mathrm{OQ}-\mathrm{OP}$

$=5-1$

$=4$

and $R S=3$

By using formula,

$\mathrm{PQR}=\frac{1}{2} \times \mathrm{PQ} \times \mathrm{RS}$

$=\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 3$

$=2 \times 3$

$=6 \mathrm{sq}$. Units

Thus the correct answer is $(\mathrm{d})$.
