a) 6 units b) −6 units c) 4 units d) −4 units
17. Assertion : A point both of whose coordinates are negative will lie in third quadrants
Reason: 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.
a) Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
b) Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.
c) assertion is true but the reason is false.
d) both assertion and reason are false
18.Assertion: The section formed by horizontal and vertical lines determining the poisition of a point in
a Cartesian plane is called quadrant.
Reason: The point of intersection of horizontal and vertical line determining the position of point in a
Cartesian plane is called origin.
a) Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
b) Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.
c) assertion is true but the reason is false.
d) both assertion and reason are false

19. If ( x − 3, −6) = (4, y ) find x, y . 6. Write the co-ordinate of the point which lies on both the axes.
x-3 = 4
x=7
y = -6
20. Write the co-ordinates of any two points whose abscissa is 2 less than the ordinate
21. If the co-ordinates of points P and Q are (−5,3),(−5,m), and the sum of the abscissa and ordinate of
both points are equal, then write the possible values of m
-5 + -5 = 3+m
-10 = 3+m
m = -13
22.In rectangle OABC, point O is the origin OA=10 units along x -axis, AB=8 units. Find the co-ordinates
of vertices A,B and C.
24. ABC is an equilateral triangle as shown in the figure. Find the coordinates of its
vertices.
So
AO=√ AC2−OC2 =√ 62−32
AO=√ 36−9 =√ 27 =3√ 3
So, here x=0 and y=3√ 3
Answer (0, 3 √ 3 )
2y=4 y=2

(i) (-3,5)
(ii) (-5,-3)
(iii) (-5,3)
(iv) (3,5)
