HOTS Questions: Orienting Yourself: The Use of Coordinates

Q1. A point P lies in Quadrant II such that its x-coordinate and y-coordinate are equal in magnitude. If the distance of P from the origin is 52 units, find the coordinates of P. Sol. Since P is in Quadrant II, let P = (-a, a) where a > 0. Distance from origin: (−a)2+a2=2a2=a2 Given: a2=52  ⟹  a=5 Ans. P = (-5, […]

Important Formulas: Orienting Yourself: The Use of Coordinates

1. Coordinates of a Point For a point P in the Cartesian plane, its coordinates are written as: P(x,y)    where    x = abscissa (x-coordinate)    and    y = ordinate (y-coordinate) 1.2 Special Coordinate Cases 2. Ordered Pair Rule If  x=y,   then  (x,y)=(y,x)If  x≠y,   then  (x,y)≠(y,x) The order of coordinates matters. Interchanging the x […]

Chapter Notes: Orienting Yourself: The Use of Coordinates

1.Introduction A system of coordinates is a structured framework – like the grid lines on a map or graph paper – that enables us to use numbers to describe the exact physical locations of points or objects. Historical Roots in Bhārat: The first systematic use of grids occurred in the Sindhu-Sarasvatī Civilisation, where city streets were built with striking […]
