How to Study Coordinate Geometry

A structured approach to studying Coordinate Geometry for MAH CET (MBA) Quantitative Aptitude.

Study Plan for Coordinate Geometry

1

Day 1–2: Learn the Theory

Study the chapter thoroughly. Note down definitions, formulas, and key concepts.

2

Day 3: Practice Problems

Solve practice questions and previous year MAH CET (MBA) problems. There are 48 questions available for this chapter.

3

Day 4: Revise & Test

Revise key formulas and concepts without looking at notes. Take a practice quiz to test your understanding.

What to Focus On

  • Origin is the point (0, 0) where both axes intersect
  • x-coordinate is called abscissa, y-coordinate is called ordinate
  • The plane is divided into four quadrants

  • Distance formula: d = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]
  • Distance is always positive
  • Based on Pythagorean theorem

  • Internal division: coordinates = (mx₂ + nx₁)/(m + n), (my₂ + ny₁)/(m + n)
  • External division: coordinates = (mx₂ - nx₁)/(m - n), (my₂ - ny₁)/(m - n)
  • Midpoint formula when m = n = 1: ((x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2)

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The distance formula gives the same result regardless of which point is taken as (x₁, y₁) and which as (x₂, y₂)

In the section formula, the ratio m:n means the point divides the line segment into exactly m and n equal parts

The midpoint formula is just a special case that can be derived by setting m = n = 1 in the section formula
