Question

ASSERTION - If the ordinate of a point is equal to its Abscissa, then the point lies either
in first quadrant or in the second quadrant.
REASON - A point both of whose coordinates are negative will lie in 3rd quadrant.
(a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true but R is false.
(d) A is false but R is true.

Answer 1

Assertion is true but reason is wrong.

Hence, C) A is true but R is false.

Answer 2

A is false but R is true.

• An ordinate (y) and an abscissa (x) are the coordinates of a point on a graph, respectively (y).
• Both x and y are positive or negative if a point's ordinate and abscissa are equal. In light of this, the point is either in the first or third quadrant.
• The first quadrant has both x and y as positive and third quadrant has both x and y as negative but second quadrant has x as negative and y as positive.
• The claim is untrue as a result.
• It is a given fact that a point whose both coordinates are negative will fall in third quadrant because third quadrant has both x and y as negative points.

Hence, Assertion is false but Reason is true.
