JAC Board Class 9th Maths Important Questions Chapter 3 Coordinate Geometry

Question 1.
Plot the point (3, 4) on a graph paper.
Solution :
JAC Class 9 Maths Important Questions Chapter 3 Coordinate Geometry - 1
Let XX’ and YY’ be the coordinate axes. Here given point is P(3, 4). First we move 3 units along OX as 3 is positive and we arrive at a point M. Now from M we move 4 units vertically upward as 4 is positive. Then we arrive at P(3, 4).

Question 2.
Write the quadrants for the following points.
(i) A(3, 4)
(ii) B(-2, 3)
(iii) C(-5, -2)
(iv) D(4, -3)
(v) E(-5, -5)
Solution :
(i) Here both coordinates are positive therefore point A lies in Ist quadrant.
(ii) Here x-coordinate is negative and y-coordinate is positive therefore point B lies in 2nd quadrant.
(iii) Here both coordinates are negative therefore point lies in 3rd quadrant.
(iv) Here x-coordinate is positive and y-coordinate is negative therefore point D lies in 4th quadrant.
(v) Here both corrdinates are negative therfore point E lies in 3rd quadrant.

Question 3.
Plot the following points on the graph paper.
(i) A(2, 5)
(ii) B(-5, -7)
(iii) C(3, -2)
(iv) D(0, 5)
(v) E(5, 0)
Solution :
