CHAPTER -3 COORDINATE GEOMETRY

What is cartesian plane?


This plane is defined by two perpendicular number lines, A horizontal line called x−axis and a
vertical line called y−axis.
What is a quadrant?
The cartesian plane is divided into four equal parts, called quadrants. These are named in the
order as I, II, III and IV starting with the upper right and going around in anticlockwise direction.
What is Origin?
The coordinate axes intersect each other at right angles, The point of intersection of these two
axes is called Origin.
What are the signs of coordinates of points in 1st quadrant?
‘+’ x – coordinate and ‘+’ y – coordinate. E.g. (6, 2)
What are the signs of coordinates of points in 2nd quadrant?
‘-’ x – coordinate and ‘+’ y – coordinate. E.g. (-2, 6)
What are the signs of coordinates of points in 3rd quadrant?
‘-’ x – coordinate and ‘-’ y – coordinate. E.g. (-5, -9)
What are the signs of coordinates of points in 4th quadrant?
‘+’ x – coordinate and ‘-’ y – coordinate. E.g. (12, -2)

SECTION- A (MCQ’S)
1)The section formed by horizontal and vertical lines determining the position of
the point in a cartesian plane is called:
a. Origin b. X-axis c. Y-axis d. Quadrants
2) The point of intersection of horizontal and vertical lines determining the
position of a point in a cartesian plane is called:
a. Origin b. X-axis c. Y-axis d. Quadrants
3) If the coordinates of a point are (0, -4), then it lies in:
a. X-axis b. Y-axis c. At origin d. Between x-axis and y-axis
4)Points (1, 2), (-2, -3), (2, -3)
a. First quadrant b. Do not lie in the same quadrant c. Third quadrant d.
Fourth quadrant
5) Signs of the abscissa and ordinate of a point in the second quadrant are
respectively
a. +, + b. +, – c. -, + d. -, –
6) Abscissa of all the points on the y-axis is
a. 0 b. 1 c. -1 d. Any number
7) The point which lies on the y-axis at a distance of 5 units in the negative
direction of the y-axis is
a. (5, 0) b. (0, 5) c. (-5, 0) d. (0, -5)
Directions:
(a) Both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct
explanation of assertion.
(b) Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct
explanation of assertion.
(c) Assertion is true but reason is false.
(d) Assertion is false but reason is true
8) Assertion: The abscissa of a point (5, 2) is 5.
Reason: The perpendicular distance of a point from y-axis is called its
abscissa.

9) Assertion : If the ordinate of a point is equal to its abscissa, then the point lies either
in the first quadran in the second quadrant.
Reason : A point both of whose coordinates are negative will lie in third quadrant

10) Assertion:The point (-2, 0) lies on y-axis and (0, 4) on x -axis.


Reason: Every point on the x -axis has zero distance from x -axis and
every point on
the y-axis has zero distance from y-axis.

12. Without plotting the points indicate the quadrant in which they will lie, if
(i) the ordinate is 5 and abscissa is – 3
(ii) the abscissa is – 5 and ordinate is – 3
