प्रश्न
Decide which of the following statements is true and which is false. Give reasons for your answer.
Points whose x and y coordinates are equal, lie on a line passing through the origin.

उत्तर
The examples of points having equal x and y coordinates are (0,0), (1,1), (2,2), etc. If these points are joined, they will lie on a line passing through the coordinates (0,0). Thus, the statement is true.

State whether True or False. Correct those are false.
A point whose x coordinate is zero and y-coordinate is non-zero will lie on the y-axis.
Locate the points:
(1, 3), (2, 3), (3, 3), (4, 3)
The distance of any point from the x-axis is called the x-coordinate.
The y-coordinate of any point lying on the x-axis will be zero.
Match the ordinates of the points given in Column A with the items mentioned in Column B.
| Column A | Column B |
| (a) (7, 0) | (i) The ordinate is double the abscissa. |
| (b) (11, 11) | (ii) The ordinate is zero. |
| (c) (4, 8) | (iii) The ordinate is equal to the abscissa. |
| (d) (6, 2) | (iv) The abscissa is double the ordinate. |
| (e) (0, 9) | (v) The abscissa is triple the ordinate. |
| (f) (6, 3) | (vi) The abscissa is zero. |
Write the x-coordinate (abscissa) of the given point.
(7, 3)
Write the y-coordinate (ordinate) of the given point.
(2, 7)
The table shows the data collected for Dhruv’s walking on a road.
| Time (in minutes) |
0 | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20 | 25 |
| Distance (in km) |
0 | 0.5 | 1 | 1.25 | 1.5 | 1.75 |
- Plot a line graph for the given data using a suitable scale.
- In what time periods did Dhruv make the most progress?
This graph shows a map of an island just off the coast of a continent. The point labelled B represents a major city on the coast. The distance between grid lines represents 1 km.
Point A represents a resort that is located 5 km East and 3 km North of Point B. The values 5 and 3 are the coordinates of Point A. The coordinates can be given as the ordered pair (5, 3), where 5 is the horizontal coordinate and 3 is the vertical coordinate.
(i) On a copy of the map, mark the point that is 3 km East and 5 km North of Point B and label it S. Is Point S in the water or on the island? Is Point S in the same place as Point A?
(ii) Mark the point that is 7 km east and 5 km north of Point B and label it C. Then mark the point that is 5 km east and 7 km north of Point B and label it D. Are Points C and D in the same place? Give the coordinates of Points C and D.
(iii) Which point is in the water, (2, 7) or (7, 2)? Mark the point which is in water on your map and label it E.
(iv) Give the coordinates of two points on the island that are exactly 2 km from Point A.
(v) Give the coordinates of the point that is halfway between Points L and P.
(vi) List three points on the island with their x-coordinates greater than 8.
(vii) List three points on the island with a y-coordinate less than 4.
