Definition: Co-ordinate Axes

The two mutually perpendicular number lines intersecting each other at their zeroes are called rectangular axes or coordinate axes, or axes of reference.

Formula: Foundation of Coordinate Geometry

Sr. No. Name Condition Formula
i. Distance Formula Two points P(x₁, y₁), Q(x₂, y₂) \[\mathrm{d(PQ)}=\sqrt{\left(x_{2}-x_{1}\right)^{2}+\left(y_{2}-y_{1}\right)^{2}}\]
a. Internal Division P divides AB in the ratio m: n \[\mathrm{P\equiv\left(\frac{mx_{2}+nx_{1}}{m+n},\frac{my_{2}+ny_{1}}{m+n}\right)}\]
b. Midpoint Formula P is the midpoint of AB \[\mathrm{P}\equiv\left(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2},\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}\right)\]
c. External Division P divides AB externally in m: n \[\mathrm{P\equiv\left(\frac{mx_{2}-nx_{1}}{m-n},\frac{my_{2}-ny_{1}}{m-n}\right)}\]
iii. Centroid Formula Triangle with vertices A, B, C \[\left(\frac{x_1+x_2+x_3}{3},\frac{y_1+y_2+y_3}{3}\right)\]

Definition: Co-ordinates

The position of a point in a plane is expressed by a pair of numbers, one concerning the x-axis and the other concerning the y-axis. called co-ordinates. 

  • x → distance from y-axis (abscissa)

  • y → distance from x-axis (ordinate)

CISCE: Class 10

Key Points: Co-ordinate Geometry

Sign Convention

  • Right of y-axis → +x

  • Left of y-axis → −x

  • Above x-axis → +y

  • Below x-axis → −y

Standard Line Results

  • x = 0 → y-axis

  • y = 0 → x-axis

  • x = a → line parallel to the y-axis

  • y = b → line parallel to the x-axis

Quadrant Reminder

Quadrant Sign of (x, y)
I (+, +)
II (−, +)
III (−, −)
IV (+, −)
