1. Point (–3, 5) lies in the
A. first quadrant
B. second quadrant
C. third quadrant
D. fourth quadrant
Solution:
B. Second Quadrant
Explanation:
(-3,5) is of form (-x,y).
In the point (-3, 5) abscissa is negative and ordinate is positive. So, it lies in the second quadrant.
Hence, (B) is the correct option.

2. Signs of the abscissa and ordinate of a point in the second quadrant are respectively
A. +, +
B. –, –
C. –, +
D. +, –
Solution:
C. –, +
Explanation:
Signs of the abscissa and ordinate of a point in the second quadrant is –, +.
Hence, (C) is the correct option.

3. Point (0, –7) lies

A. on the x –axis
B. in the second quadrant
C. on the y-axis
D. in the fourth quadrant
Solution:
C. on the y-axis
Explanation:
Since the abscissa is 0, Point (0, –7) lies on y-axis.
Hence, (C) is the correct option.

4. Point (– 10, 0) lies

A. on the negative direction of the x-axis
B. on the negative direction of the y-axis
C. in the third quadrant
D. in the fourth quadrant
Solution:
A. on the negative direction of the x-axis
Explanation:
 Point (– 10, 0) lies on the negative direction of x-axis.
Hence, (A) is the correct option.

5. Abscissa of all the points on the x-axis is

A. 0
B. 1
C. 2
D. any number
Solution:
D. any number
Explanation:
Abscissa of all the points on the x-axis can be any number.
Hence, (D) is the correct option.

6. Ordinate of all points on the x-axis is

A. 0
B. 1
C. – 1
D. any number
Solution:
A. 0
Explanation:
Ordinate of all the points on the x-axis is 0.
Hence, (A) is the correct option.

7. The point at which the two coordinate axes meet is called the
A. abscissa
B. ordinate
C. origin
D. quadrant
Solution:
C. origin
Explanation:
The points at which the two coordinate axes meet is called the origin.
Hence, (C) is the correct option.

8. A point both of whose coordinates are negative will lie in

A. I quadrant
B. II quadrant
C. III quadrant
D. IV quadrant
Solution:
C. III quadrant
Explanation:
A point whose both of the coordinate are negative will lie in the III quadrant.
Hence, (C) is the correct option.
9. Points (1, – 1), (2, – 2), (4, – 5), (– 3, – 4)
A. lie in II quadrant
B. lie in III quadrant
C. lie in IV quadrant
D. do not lie in the same quadrant
Solution:
D. do not lie in the same quadrant
Explanation:
Points (1, – 1), (2, – 2), (4, – 5) lie in IV quadrant and (– 3, – 4) lie in III quadrant.
Hence, (D) is the correct option.

10. If y coordinate of a point is zero, then this point always lies

A. in I quadrant
B. in II quadrant
C. on x – axis
D. on y – axis
Solution:
C. on x – axis
Explanation:
We know that if y-coordinate of a point, i.e., ordinate is zero, then this point always lies on
x-axis.
Hence, (C) is the correct option.

11. The points (–5, 2) and (2, – 5) lie in the

A. same quadrant
B. II and III quadrants, respectively
C. II and IV quadrants, respectively
D. IV and II quadrants, respectively
Solution:
C. on x – axis
Explanation:
(-5,2) is of the form (-x,y) so it lies in the II quadrant.
(2,-5) is of the form (x,-y) so it lies in IV quadrant.
(C) II and IV quadrants, respectively
Hence, (C) is the correct option.

12. If the perpendicular distance of a point P from the x-axis is 5 units and the foot of the
perpendicular lies on the negative direction of x-axis, then the point P has
A. x – coordinate = – 5
B. y - coordinate = 5 only
C. y – coordinate = – 5 only
D. y – coordinate = 5 or –5
Solution:
D. y – coordinate = 5 or –5
Explanation:

Perpendicular distance from x-axis = Ordinate = 5

The negative direction of x-axis doesn’t decide the sign of the ordinate.
(D) y-coordinate = 5 or -5.
Hence, (D) is the correct option.
Exercise 3.2
1. Write whether the following statements are True or False? Justify your answer.
(i) Point (3, 0) lies in the first quadrant.
(ii) Points (1, –1) and (–1, 1) lie in the same quadrant.

(iv) A point lies on y-axis at a distance of 2 units from the x-axis. Its coordinates are (2, 0).
(v) (–1, 7) is a point in the II quadrant.
Solution:
(i) Point (3, 0) lies in the first quadrant.
False
Justification:
The ordinate of the point (3, 0) is zero.
Hence, the point lies on the x-axis

(ii) Points (1, –1) and (–1, 1) lie in the same quadrant.
False
Justification:
(1, -1) lies in IV quadrant
(-1, 1) lies in II quadrant.

False
Justification:
The coordinates of a point whose ordinate is – ½ and abscissa is 1 is (1, -1/2).

(iv) A point lies on y-axis at a distance of 2 units from the x-axis. Its coordinates are (2, 0).
False
Justification:
A point lies on y-axis at a distance of 2 units from the x-axis. Its coordinates are (0, 2).

(v) (–1, 7) is a point in the II quadrant.

True
Justification:
(–1, 7) is a point in the II quadrant.
Exercise 3.3
1. Write the coordinates of each of the points P, Q, R, S, T and O from the Fig. 3.5.

The coordinates of the points P, Q, R, S, T and O are as follows:
P = (1, 1)
Q = (-3, 0)
R = (-2, -3)
S = (2, 1)
T = (4, -2)
O = (0, 0)

2. Plot the following points and write the name of the figure obtained by joining them in order:
P(– 3, 2), Q (– 7, – 3), R (6, – 3), S (2, 2)

 The figure obtained is a Trapezium.

3. Plot the points (x, y) given by the following table:

Solution:

4. Plot the following points and check whether they are collinear or not:
(i) (1, 3), (– 1, – 1), (– 2, – 3)
(ii) (1, 1), (2, – 3), (– 1, – 2)
(iii) (0, 0), (2, 2), (5, 5)
Solution:
(i)

The points (1, 3), (– 1, – 1), (– 2, – 3) lie in a straight line,

Hence, the points are collinear.

(ii)

The points (1, 1), (2, – 3), (– 1, – 2) lie in a straight line,

Hence, the points are not collinear.

(iii)
 The points (0, 0), (2, 2), (5, 5) lie in a straight line,
Hence, the points are collinear.

5. Without plotting the points indicate the quadrant in which they will lie, if
(i) ordinate is 5 and abscissa is – 3
(ii) abscissa is – 5 and ordinate is – 3
(iii) abscissa is – 5 and ordinate is 3
(iv) ordinate is 5 and abscissa is 3
Solution:
(i) The point is (-3,5).
Hence, the point lies in the II quadrant.
(ii) The point is (-5,-3).
Hence, the point lies in the III quadrant.
(iii) The point is (-5,3).
Hence, the point lies in the II quadrant.
(iv) The point is (3,5).
Hence, the point lies in the I quadrant.

6. In Fig. 3.6, LM is a line parallel to the y-axis at a distance of 3 units.

(i) What are the coordinates of the points P, R and Q?
(ii) What is the difference between the abscissa of the points L and M?
Solution:
(i) The coordinates are:
P = (3,2)
R = (3,0)
Q = (3,-1)

(ii) Since, all the points on the line have the same abscissa = 3.
The difference in abscissa of L and M = 0.
