Questions Related to linear graphs

State the following statement is True or False
The coordinates of the origin are $(0, 0)$.

maths linear graphs coordinates of a point plotting and reading points on a coordinate plane position and numbers

  1. True

  2. False

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Point of intersection of $x$ and $y$ axes is called origin.
Its co-ordinate is $(0,0)$.
Hence, option A is correct.

Sate true or false
Line joining them is parallel to Y axis
(i) $(4, 2)$
(ii) $(4, -5)$
(iii) $(4, 0)$
(iv) $(4, -2)$

maths linear graphs coordinates of a point plotting and reading points on a coordinate plane position and numbers

  1. True

  2. False

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

All the points have $x-coordinate=4$.

so, all the points lie on line $x=4$, which is parallel to $y-axis$.
hence, the line joining the above points is parallel to $y-axis$.

State true or false
The abscissa of two points is $0$.Line joining them is Y axis

maths linear graphs coordinates of a point plotting and reading points on a coordinate plane position and numbers

  1. True

  2. False

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Given abscissa of two points is $0$.

let's assume the points as $(0,a)$ and $(0,b)$.
line joining these two points is given by $x=0$, which is $y-axis$.

Sate true or false
The ordinates of two points are each $-6$. Line joining them is parallel to X axis

maths linear graphs coordinates of a point plotting and reading points on a coordinate plane position and numbers

  1. True

  2. False

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

ordinate of the two points are $-6$.

let's take two points as $(a,-6)$ and $(b,-6)$.
line joining these two points is given by $y=-6$, which is parallel to $x-axis$.
