What are coordinates and how are they determined?
Answer
Coordinates are a pair of numbers (x, y) that specify the exact location of a point in a plane. They are determined by: • Drawing two perpendicular lines called axes of coordinates • The horizontal li…
Find the coordinates of points A, B, C, and D in a coordinate plane where A is 3 units right and 2 units up from origin, B is 4 units left and 1 unit up, C is 2 units right and 3 units down, and D is
Answer
Step-by-step solution: • Point A: 3 units right (+3), 2 units up (+2) → A(3, 2) • Point B: 4 units left (-4), 1 unit up (+1) → B(-4, 1) • Point C: 2 units right (+2), 3 units down (-3) → C(2, -3) • Po…
What are the y-coordinates of all points on the x-axis? What are the x-coordinates of all points on the y-axis?
Answer
• Points on x-axis: y-coordinate = 0 Examples: (5, 0), (-3, 0), (0, 0) • Points on y-axis: x-coordinate = 0 Examples: (0, 4), (0, -2), (0, 0) • The origin (0, 0) lies on both axes Reason: Points …
If two points have coordinates (2, 5) and (7, 5), what can you say about the line joining them?
Answer
The line joining (2, 5) and (7, 5) is parallel to the x-axis. Reason: • Both points have the same y-coordinate (5) • When y-coordinates are equal, points lie on a horizontal line • Horizontal lines a…
Find the other two vertices of a rectangle with opposite vertices at (1, 2) and (5, 6), with sides parallel to the axes.
Answer
Step-by-step solution: Given opposite vertices: A(1, 2) and C(5, 6) Step 1: For rectangle with sides parallel to axes, other vertices are: • One vertex has same x as A, same y as C • Other vertex has…
What is the distance formula between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂)? Derive it.
Answer
Distance Formula: d = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²] Derivation: • Consider points A(x₁, y₁) and B(x₂, y₂) • Form a right triangle with these points • Horizontal leg length = |x₂ - x₁| • Vertical leg len…
Calculate the distance between points A(-3, 4) and B(2, -1).
Answer
Step-by-step solution: Given: A(-3, 4) and B(2, -1) Step 1: Apply distance formula d = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²] Step 2: Substitute values • x₁ = -3, y₁ = 4 • x₂ = 2, y₂ = -1 d = √[(2 - (-3))² + (-…
What is the distance from any point (x, y) to the origin?
Answer
Distance from point (x, y) to origin (0, 0): Using distance formula: d = √[(x - 0)² + (y - 0)²] d = √[x² + y²] Therefore: Distance = √(x² + y²) Examples: • Point (3, 4): Distance = √(3² + 4²) = √25…
