Solution
| Column A | Column B |
| (a) (7, 0) | (ii) The ordinate is zero. |
| (b) (11, 11) | (iii) The ordinate is equal to the abscissa. |
| (c) (4, 8) | (i) The ordinate is double the abscissa. |
| (d) (6, 2) | (v) The abscissa is triple the ordinate. |
| (e) (0, 9) | (vi) The abscissa is zero. |
| (f) (6, 3) | (iv) The abscissa is double the ordinate. |
Explanation:
(a) Clearly, the ordinate of the point (7, 0) is zero.
(b) In the point (11, 11), the ordinate is equal to the abscissa.
(c) In the point (4, 8), the ordinate is double of the abscissa.
(d) In the point (6, 2), the abscissa, i.e. x-coordinate is triple of the ordinate, i.e. y-coordinate.
(e) The abscissa of the point (0, 9) is zero.
(f) Clearly, the abscissa is double of the ordinate.

Explain the situations represented by the following distance-time graph.
The following graph shows the journey made by two cyclists, one from town A to B and the other from town B to A.
- At what time did cyclist II rest? How long did the cyclist rest?

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.
