AP State Syllabus 9th Class Maths Solutions 5th Lesson Co-Ordinate Geometry Exercise 5.2
Question 1.
 Write the quadrant in which the following points lie.
 i) (- 2, 3)
 ii) (5, – 3)
 iii) (4, 2)
 iv) (- 7, – 6)
 v) (0, 8)
 vi) (3, 0)
 vii) (-4,0)
 viii) (0, – 6)
 Solution:
 i) (- 2, 3) – Q2 (second quadrant)
 ii) (5, – 3) – Q4 (fourth quadrant)
 iii) (4, 2) – Q1 (Iirst quadrant)
 iv) (- 7, – 6) – Q3 (third quadrant)
 v) (0, 8) – on Y-axis
 vi) (3, 0) – on X-axis
 vii) (-4,0) – on X’ – axis
 viii) (0, – 6) – on Y’: axis

Question 2.
 Write the abscissae and ordinates of the following points.
 i)(4,-8)
 ii)(-5,3)
 iii)(0,0)
 iv)(5, 0)
 v)(0, -8)
 Note: Plural of abscissa is abscissae.
 Solution:
| Point | abscissa | ordinate | 
| i) (4, – 8) | 4 | -8 | 
| ii) (-5, 3) | -5 | 3 | 
| iii) (0,0) | 0 | 0 | 
| iv) (5,0) | 5 | 0 | 
| v) (0,-8) . | 0 | -8 | 

Question 3.
 Which of the following points lie on the axes ? Also name the axis.
 i) (-5,-8)
 ii) (0, 13)
 iii) (4, – 2)
 iv) (- 2,0)
 v) (0, – 8)
 vi) (7,0)
 vii) (0,0)
 Solution:
 The points (ii) (0,13) ; (v) (0,- 8) lie on Y – axis.
 The points (iv) (- 2, 0), (vi) (7, 0) lie on X – axis.
 The point (vii) (0, 0) lie on both X – axis and Y – axis.
 The points (i) (- 5, – 8); (iii) (4, – 2) do not lie on any axis.
Question 4.
 Write the following based on the graph.
 i) The ordinate of L
 ii) The ordinate of Q
 iii) The point denoted by (- 2,-2)
 iv) The point denoted by (5, – 4)
 v) The abscissa of N
 vi) The abscissa of M
 
 Solution:
 i) – 7
 ii) 7
 iii) The point ’R’
 iv) The point P
 v) 4
 vi) – 3

Question 5.
 State true or false and write correct statement.
 i) In the Cartesian plane the horizon-tal line is called Y – axis, if) in the Cartesian plane, the vertical line is called Y – axis.
 iii) The point which lies on both the axes is called origin.
 iv) The point (2, – 3) lies in the third quadrant.
 v) (-5, -8) lies in the fourth quadrant.
 vi) The point (- x, – y) lies in the first quadrant where x < 0; y < 0.
 Solution:
 i) False
 Correct statement: In the Cartesian plane the horizontal line is called X – axis.
 ii) True
 iii) True
 iv) False
 Correct statement: The point (2, -3) lies in the fourth quadrant.
 v) False
 Correct statement: (- 5, – 8) lies in the third quadrant.
 vi) True

Question 6.
 Plot the following ordered pairs on a graph sheet. What do you observe ?
 i) (1, 0), (3, 0), (- 2, 0), (- 5, 0), (0, 0), (5, 0), (- 6, 0)
 ii) (0, 1), (0, 3), (0, – 2), (0, – 5), (0, 0), (0,5), (0,-6)
 Solution:
 i) All points lie on X – axis,
 ii) All points lie on Y – axis.
