KGB schools provide free education to girls students from weaker sections. The local body of a town want to open a KGB school in the town for which a rectangular plot ABCD, as shown in the following figure, is very suitable. But this plot belongs to Rati Ram. Rati Ram agrees to exchange it with triangular plot PQR as shown in the same figure. The co-ordinates of the vertices of both the plots are shown in the figure:
(i) Compare the areas of both the plots.
(ii) Which mathematical concept is used in the above problem?
(iii) By opening KGB school in the town, which value is depicted by the local body?
32.
See the figure given below and write the following:
(i) The co-ordinates of B.
(ii) The co-ordinates of C.
(iii) The point identified by the co-ordinates (-3, -5).
(iv) The point identified by the co-ordinates (2, -4).
(v) The abscissa of the point D.
(vi) The ordinate of the point H
(vii) The co-ordinates of the point L.
(viii) The co-ordinates of the point M.
1.
First, we draw the coordinate axes XOX' and YOY'. Now let the vertices of the required quadrilateral are A(3, 2), B(2, 3), C(-4, 5) and D(5, -4).
Therefore, plot the point A, B, C and D and join them.
We get the quadrilateral ABCD as shown in the following figure.
2.
(i) ∴ Points of type (+, -) lie in the 4th quadrant.
∴ Point (5, -3) lies in the quadrant IV.
(ii)∴ Points of the type h+) lie in the 2nd quadrant.
∴ The point (-8, 4) lies in the quadrant II.
(iii)∴ The points of the type (-, -) lie in the 3rd quadrant.
∴ The point (-3, --6) lies in the quadrant III.
(iv) ∴ The points of the type (+, +) lie in the 1st quadrant.
∴ The point (5, 4) lies in the quadrant I.
3.
(i) The abscissa and the ordinate of the point B are -3 and 3 respectively. Hence, the coordinates of B are (-3, 3).
(ii) The x-coordinate and the y-coordinate of the point A are 4 and 2 respectively. Hence the coordinates of A are (4,2).
(iii) The x-coordinate and y-coordiante of the point D are 6 and -2 respectively. Hence, the coordinates of D are (6,-2).
4.
Let us draw the coordinate axes XOX' and YOY " and choose a suitable units of distance on the axes.
Let 1 cm = 1 unit.
Mark a point A on Y-axis at a 6 units distance in positive direction of Y-axis and mark a point C on X-axis at a 3 units distance in negative direction of X-axis.

Now, draw a perpendicular lines from C and A, which meets at a point B. Thus, we get the rectangle OABC whose vertices are O(0,0), A(0, 6), B(-3, 6) and C(-3, 0), respectively.
.\(\because \) Area of the rectangle = Length x Breadth
\(\therefore \) Area of rectangle OABC = 6 x 3 = 18 sq units
5.
(i) For point (-3, 5), x-coordinate is negative and y-coordinate is positive, so it lies in II quadrant.
(ii) For point (4, -1), x-coordinate is positive and y-coordinate is negative, so it lies in IV quadrant.
(iii) For point (2, 0), x-coordinate is positive and y-coordinate is zero, so it lies on X-axis.
(iv) For point (2, 2), x-coordinate and y-coordinate both are positive, so it lies in I quadrant.
(v) For point (-3, - 6), x-coordinate and y-coordinate both are negative, so it lies in III quadrant.
6.
We know that, coordinates of any point lies on X-axis atthe distance' a' from the Y -axis are (a, 0) and (- a, 0). Since, the given point lies on X-axis at a distance of9 units from Y-axis, so its coordinates are (9, O)or (- 9, 0). Now, if point lies on Y-axis at a distance of9 units from X-axis in negative direction, then its coordinates are (0, 9) and (0, - 9).
7.
Given, Point A (3, 4) i.e. abscissa of A = 3
and Point B (- 2, 5), i.e. abscissa of B = - 2
\(\therefore\) Abscissa of A - Abscissa of B
= 3 - (-2) = 3 + 2 = 5

(i) For rectangle ABCD:
AB = 8 - 2 = 6 units ← Length
AD = 12 - 8 = 4 units ← Breadth
∴ Area of rectangle ABCD = AB x AD
= 6 units x 4 units
= 24 sq. units.
For triangle PQR:
QR = 12 - 4 = 8 units ← Base
SP = 6 - 0 = 6 units ← Height
∴ Area of ΔPQR = \(\frac{1}{2}\) base x height
= \(\frac{1}{2}\) x 8 x 6 sq. units
= 24 sq. units.
⇒ \(\left[\begin{array}{l} \text { area of } \\ \text { rect. } \mathrm{ABCD} \end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{l} \text { area of } \\ \Delta \mathrm{PQR} \end{array}\right]\)

From the figure, we have
(i) The co-ordinates of B are (-5, 2).
(ii) The co-ordinates of C are (5, -5).
(iii) The point E is identified by the co-ordinates (-3, -5)
(iv) The point G is identified by the co-ordinates (2, -4).
(v) The abscissa of the point D is 6.
(vi) The ordinate of the point H is -3.
(vii) The co-ordinates of the point L are (0, 5).
(viii) The co-ordinates of the point M are (-3, 0).
Plotting a point in the plane when coordinates of the point are given
To plot a point in the coordinate plane we draw the coordinate axes and choose our units such that we can mark equal distances on the x-axis or on the y-axis or on both the axes. We take origin as zero for x-axis as well as on y-axis. The distances marked along OX and OY are taken as positive and those along OX and OY are taken as negative.
