The Cartesian coordinate system, also called a rectangular coordinate system, is based on a two-dimensional plane consisting of the x-axis and
the y-axis. Perpendicular to each other, the axes divide the plane into four sections. Each section is called a quadrant; the quadrants are
numbered counterclockwise as shown in figure below
A point in the plane is defined as an ordered pair, (x,y), such that x is determined by its horizontal distance from the origin and y is
determined by its vertical distance from the origin.
The distance from a point to the vertical or y-axis is called the abscissa or x-coordinate
Here, OM is x-coordinate
The distance from a point to the horizontal or x-axis is called the ordinate or y-coordinate
Here, PM is y-coordinate
we can represent the point (3,−1) in the plane by moving three units to the right of the origin in the horizontal direction, and one unit down in
the vertical direction.
If OP = r and ∠XOP = Θ. Then, the ordered pair of real numbers (r, Θ) called the polar coordinates of the point P.

OM = x = r cos Θ
PM = y = r sin Θ
Solution
From the table, X-coordinate is -ve and Y-coordinate is +ve. So, the point lies on 2nd quadrant.
Example: A point lies on X-axis at a distance of 10 units from Y-axis, then the coordinates of the point will be
Solution :
Given that point lies on X-axis at a distance of 10 units from the Y-axis, so the point may be on the left of the Y-axis or right of the Y-axis. So,
X-coordinate will be -10 or +10.

Locus and its Equation
When point move in a plane under certain geometrical conditions, then the point traces out a path, This path of the moving point is known as
a locus.
For example, let a point O(0,0) is a fixed point (i.e. origin) and a variable point P (x, y) is in the same plane. If point P moves in such a way
that the distance OP is constant r, then point P traces out a circle whose center is O(0, 0) and radius is r.
2. Express the given condition as an equation in terms of the known quantities and unknown parameters.
3. Eliminate the parameters so that eliminant consists only locus coordinates h, k, and known quantities.

Text Straight Line
It is a curve such that all points on the line segment joining any two points on it lies on it. Every equation of first degree in x, y represents a
straight line.
General equation of a straight line is given as ax + by + c = 0 where a, b and c are from the real number and at least one of a and b is non-
zero.
Slope of a Line
Slope is the measure of direction in which a line is drawn. A line in a coordinate plane forms two angles with the x-axis, which are
supplementary.
The angle (say) θ made by the line l with the positive direction of the x-axis and measured anticlockwise is called the inclination of the line.
The trigonometrical tangent of an angle that a line makes with the positive direction of the x-axis in an anticlockwise sense is called the slope
or gradient of the line.
If θ is the angle at which a straight line is inclined to a positive direction of the x-axis, then the slope is defined by m = tan θ
If a line is equally inclined with the coordinate axes (as shown in figure) then it will make an angle of 450 and 1350 wrt positive direction of x-
axis.
If and are two points on a straight line then the slope of the line is
X-Intercept: The distance on the x-axis from the origin where the straight line cuts it. Here straight line cuts X-axis at (x, 0) so the length of x-
intercepts will be |x|.
[Link] 74/254
10/5/21, 9:07 AM [Link]
y-intercept: The distance on the y-axis from the origin where the straight line cuts it. Here straight line cuts Y-axis at (0, y) so the length of y-
intercepts will be |y|.
To get the slope of a line we need two points on the line. The line meets the coordinate axes at points A(-c/a, 0) and B(0,-c/b)

Solution
For y-intercept, x = 0,
4(0) - 3y + 9 = 0

Definition:
A circle is the locus of a moving point such that its distance from a fixed point is constant.
The fixed point is called the centre (O) of the circle and constant distance is called its radius (r).
The line joining any two points on the circumference of a circle is called a chord and if the chord is passing through the centre is called the
diameter of the circle.

The general form of a circle's equation is (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2 where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius. The radius, being the distance from the center to any point on the circle, directly influences the size of the circle. This equation helps solve problems involving tangents, secants, or chords as one might calculate properties like intersections or distances based on certain given conditions, like a circle touching axes or passing through given points .
The locus describes the set of all positions that a point can take under specific conditions. Understanding this concept allows for the derivation of equations representing parabolas and circles, facilitating the solving of problems related to constraints like focusing a light ray or ensuring constant distance from a point (circle). This approach aids in determining paths, curvatures, or boundary conditions crucial for modeling and solving real-world spatial problems .
The centroid of a triangle is the point where the three medians intersect, acting as the triangle's center of gravity or balance point. It divides each median in a 2:1 ratio. The coordinates of the centroid (G) for a triangle with vertices A(x1, y1), B(x2, y2), and C(x3, y3) can be calculated using the formula G((x1+x2+x3)/3, (y1+y2+y3)/3).
Using the midpoint formula provides coordinates that bisect a line segment, useful for constructing medians in triangles or determining diagonals in polygons. The midpoint formula, (x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2, identifies central points indicative of symmetry, balance, or key construction lines. In triangles, these midpoints are used to locate medians, integral in identifying centroids. In broader polygon contexts, they can help establish congruent segments or verify symmetry .
The slope of a line measures its steepness and direction. For two lines to be parallel, they must share the same slope. Conversely, for lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slopes must equal -1, indicating opposite and reciprocal gradients. This mathematical principle allows for the derivation of equations for lines parallel or perpendicular to a given line by manipulating the slope .
The locus of a moving point is the path it traces according to certain geometric conditions. For example, if a point P(x, y) moves such that its distance from a fixed point O(0, 0) is constant, the locus is a circle centered at O with radius r. Similarly, if perpendiculars are drawn from points on a line to another line, the locus of midpoint of these perpendiculars can trace another geometrical figure like a line or parabola .
The incentre of a triangle is found at the intersection of its angle bisectors and its coordinates are determined using the formula involving the side lengths a, b, c and the vertices A(x1, y1), B(x2, y2), and C(x3, y3). The coordinates are calculated as ((ax1 + bx2 + cx3)/(a+b+c), (ay1 + by2 + cy3)/(a+b+c)). The importance of the incentre lies in its equidistance from all the sides of the triangle, serving as the center for the inscribed circle, which is useful in geometric constructions and derivations related to the minimal or maximal properties of sizes .
For lines to be parallel, they must have identical slopes. The formula for the distance between two parallel lines ax + by + c1 = 0 and ax + by + c2 = 0 is given by |c2-c1|/√(a^2+b^2). This distance formula derives from the perpendicular distance concept in coordinate geometry and exemplifies how line equations with consistent slopes but varied y-intercepts can define consistent, non-intersecting spatial separations .
The intersection point of two lines is a shared coordinate that lies on both lines. It can be found by solving the system of equations representing the lines. This point is crucial in determining concurrent lines, verifying geometric properties, and solving geometric problems involving shapes and patterns. It also serves as a means to determine circumcenters or incenters in triangles by finding where angle bisectors intersect .
The section formula provides a method to determine the coordinates of a point dividing a line segment into a given ratio. For internal division of a segment between two points A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2) by a point P in the ratio m:n, the coordinates of P are ((mx2 + nx1)/(m+n), (my2 + ny1)/(m+n)). This formula is fundamental in solving problems related to proportionate division and plays a critical role in various geometric constructions and proofs .
