Coordinate Geometry Test - 3

As the point is (7, 0),
(7, 0) ↔ (x, y)
Here, x co-ordinate is 7 which is positive and y co-ordinate is 0,
and when y co-ordinate is 0, then the point lies on x–axis.
So, the point (7, 0) lies on positive x–axis.

The perpendicular distance of a point (- 2, - 4) from x-axis will be y co-ordinate but with a positive sign, as the distance is never negative.
So, the perpendicular distance of (- 2, - 4) from x-axis is 4 units.

The point is (0, – 3).
Here, y co-ordinate is – 3, which is negative
and when x co-ordinate is zero, then the point lies on y-axis.
So, the point (0, – 3) lies on the negative y-axis.

The point is (– 2, 5).

Here, x-co-ordinate is – 2 < 0 and y co-ordinate is 5 > 0.
And when x < 0 and y > 0 in the point (x, y), then the point lies in the second quadrant.

So, the point (– 2, 5) lies in the 2^nd quadrant.
OR

The signs of the co-ordinates of point are (–, +), which lies in the 2^nd quadrant.

So, the point (– 2, 5) lies in the 2^nd quadrant.

The perpendicular distance of the point (11, –9) from the x-axis will be y coordinate of the point, but with a positive sign as the distance is never negative.
So, the perpendicular distance of (11, –9) from the x-axis is 9 units.

The point is (7, 3) ↔ (x, y)
Here, x > 0 and y > 0,
and when x > 0 and y > 0, the point (x, y) lies in the first quadrant.
Then, the point (7, 3) lies in the 1^st quadrant.

As the point is (6, 0),
(6, 0) ↔ (x, y)
Here, x co-ordinate is 6, which is positive and y co-ordinate is 0.
When y co-ordinate of a point is 0, then the point lies on x-axis.

So, the point (6, 0) lies on positive x-axis.

The point is (4, – 8).

Here, x co-ordinate is 4 > 0 and y co-ordinate is – 8 < 0.
When x > 0 and y < 0, then the point (x, y) lies in the 4^th quadrant.

So, the point (4, – 8) lies in the fourth quadrant.
OR
The signs of co-ordinates of point are (+, –), which lies in the 4^th quadrant.

So, the point (4, – 8) lies in the 4^th quadrant.

The point is (– 7, – 9).

Here, x co-ordinate is – 7, which is negative
and y co-ordinate is – 9, which is also negative.

When x < 0 and y < 0, then the point (x, y) lies in the third quadrant.

So, the point (– 7, – 9) lies in the third quadrant.
OR
The signs of co-ordinates of the point are (–, –), which lies in the 3^rd quadrant.

So, the point (– 7, – 9) lies in the third quadrant.
