प्रश्न
On which axis do the following points lie?
Q(0, -2)
उत्तर
According to the Rectangular Cartesian Co-ordinate system of representing a point (x, y),
If x > 0, y > 0 then the point lies in the 1st quadrant
If x < 0, y > 0 then the point lies in the 2nd quadrant
If x < 0, y < 0 then the point lies in the 3rd quadrant
If x > 0, y < 0 then the point lies in the 4th quadrant
But in case
if `x = 0, y != 0`then the point lies on the y-axis
if `y =0, x != 0` then the point lies on the x-axis
Here the point is given to be Q (0, -2). Comparing this with the standard form of (x, y) we have
x = 0
y = -2
Here we see that x = 0, `y != 0`
Hence the given point lies on the y-axis

Ryan, from a very young age, was fascinated by the twinkling of stars and the vastness of space. He always dreamt of becoming an astronaut one day. So, he started to sketch his own rocket designs on the graph sheet. One such design is given below :
Based on the above, answer the following questions:
i. Find the mid-point of the segment joining F and G. (1)
ii. a. What is the distance between the points A and C? (2)
OR
b. Find the coordinates of the points which divides the line segment joining the points A and B in the ratio 1 : 3 internally. (2)
iii. What are the coordinates of the point D? (1)
Assertion (A): Mid-point of a line segment divides the line segment in the ratio 1 : 1
Reason (R): The ratio in which the point (−3, k) divides the line segment joining the points (− 5, 4) and (− 2, 3) is 1 : 2.
