RS Aggarwal Solutions For Class 9 Maths Chapter 5 Coordinate Geometry

This document provides solutions to exercises from RS Aggarwal Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 5 on coordinate geometry. It involves plotting points on a coordinate plane, finding their coordinates, identifying which quadrant or axis they lie on, and calculating areas of geometric shapes formed by some of the points. Specifically, it plots 12 points on a plane, writes the coordinates of 5 points, identifies the quadrants or axes of 8 other points, names 3 points that lie on the x-axis, plots 3 points and joins them to find the area of the triangle they form, and finds the coordinates of the 4th vertex and area of a rectangle given 3 vertices.

following points.
(i) A (5, 3)
(ii) B (6, 2)
(iii) C (-5, 3)

(x) J (-3, 0)
(xi) K (0, -2)
(xii) O (0, 0)
Solution:
L
Q

NOTES BY ~ QUANTA LEARNING ACADEMY (QLA)


A
Solution:

From the coordinates draw perpendiculars on x-axis namely AF, BG, CH, DI and EJ

For point A
Distance from y-axis = OF = -6 units
Distance from x-axis = AF = 5 units
Therefore, the coordinates of point A are (-6, 5)
L
For point B
Distance from y-axis = OG = 5 units
Distance from x-axis = BG = 4 units
Therefore, the coordinates of point B are (5, 4)

For point C
Distance from y-axis = OH = -3 units
Distance from x-axis = HC = 2 units
Therefore, the coordinates of point C are (-3, 2)
Q
For point D
Distance from y-axis = OI = 2 units
Distance from x-axis = ID = -2 units
Therefore, the coordinates of point D are (2, -2)

For point E
Distance from y-axis = OJ = -1 unit
Distance from x-axis = JE = -4 units
Therefore, the coordinates of point E are (-1, - 4)

3. For each of the following points, write the quadrant in which it lies.
(i) (-6, 3)
(ii) (-5, -3)
(iii) (11, 6)

(iv) (1, -4)
(v) (-7, -4)
(vi) (4, -1)
(vii) (-3, 8)
(viii) (3, -8)
Solution:

(i) For the coordinate (-6, 3)


-6 which is the x-coordinate is negative and 3 which is the y-coordinate is positive.
Therefore, (-6, 3) lies in the II quadrant.

(ii) For the coordinate (-5, -3)


-5 which is the x-coordinate is negative and -3 which is the y-coordinate is negative.

A
Therefore, (-5, -3) lies in the III quadrant.

(iii) For the coordinate (11, 6)


11 which is the x-coordinate is positive and 6 which is the y-coordinate is positive.
Therefore, (11, 6) lies in I quadrant.

(iv) For the coordinate (1, -4)


1 which is the x-coordinate is positive and -4 which is the y-coordinate is negative.
Therefore, (1, -4) lies in the IV quadrant.

(v) For the coordinate (-7, -4)


-7 which is the x-coordinate is negative and -4 which is the y-coordinate is negative.
L
Therefore, (-7, -4) lies in the III quadrant.

(vi) For the coordinate (4, -1)


4 which is the x-coordinate is positive and -1 which is the y-coordinate is negative.
Therefore, (4, -1) lies in the IV quadrant.

(vii) For the coordinate (-3, 8)


-3 which is the x-coordinate is negative and 8 which is the y-coordinate is positive.
Therefore, (-3, 8) lies in the II quadrant.
Q
(viii) For the coordinate (3, -8)
3 which is the x-coordinate is positive and -8 which is the y-coordinate is negative.
Therefore, (3, -8) lies in the IV quadrant.

4. Write the axis on which the given point lies.


(i) (2, 0)
(ii) (0, -5)
(iii) (-4, 0)
(iv) (0, -1)
Solution:

(i) Since the point (2, 0) is of the form (x, 0) it lies on the x-axis.

(ii) Since the point (0, -5) is of the form (0, y) it lies on the y-axis.

(iii) Since the point (-4, 0) is of the form (x, 0) it lies on the x-axis.

(iv) Since the point (0, -1) is of the form (0, y) it lies on the y-axis.

5. Which of the following points lie on the x-axis?


(i) A (0, 8)
(ii) B (4, 0)
(iii) C (0, -3)
(iv) D (-6, 0)
(v) E (2, 1)
(vi) F (-2, -1)
(vii) G (-1, 0)
(viii) H (0, -2)

A
Solution:

The points which lie on the x-axis are of the form (x, 0)
Therefore, the points which lie on the x-axis are B (4, 0), D (-6, 0) and G (-1, 0).

6. Plot the points A (2, 5), B (-2, 2) and C (4, 2) on a graph paper. Join AB, BC and AC. Calculate the
area of △ ABC.
Solution:
L
Q

Construct a line AM which is perpendicular to BC


Area of △ ABC = 1/2 × b × h
= 1/2 × BC × AM
So on further calculation we get
Area of △ ABC = 1/2 × 6 × 3
Area of △ ABC = 9 sq. units

7. Three vertices of a rectangle ABCD are A (3, 1), B (-3, -1) and C (-3, 3). Plot these points on the
graph paper and find the coordinates of the fourth vertex D. Also, find the area of the rectangle
ABCD.

NOTES BY ~ QUANTA LEARNING ACADEMY (QLA)


Solution:

From the graph

Area of rectangle ABCD = l × b


= AB × BC
On further calculation we get
Area of rectangle ABCD = 6 × 2
A
The coordinates of point D are (3, 3)
L
Area of rectangle ABCD = 12 sq. units
