Question

Find the coordinates of the point whose abscissa is 4 and ordinate is three fourth of abscissa. Also find the quadrant in which the given point lies

Answer 1

Answer:

(4,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the abscissa be x = 4

let the ordinate be y= 3/4*4

y= 3

(x,y) = (4,3)

Answer 2

The point is ( 4, 3 ) and it lies in the first quadrant.

Given: The point whose abscissa is 4 and ordinate is three-fourth of abscissa.

To Find: The coordinates of the point and the quadrant in which the given point lies.

Solution:

• We know that the abscissa of a point means the x-coordinate of the point.
• We also know that the ordinate of a point means the y-coordinate of the point.
• In the first quadrant, the x and y coordinate both must be positive.
• In the second quadrant, the x-coordinate is negative and the y-coordinate is positive.
• In the third quadrant, the x-coordinate is negative and the y-coordinate is also negative
• In the fourth quadrant, the x coordinate is positive and the y-coordinate is negative.

Coming to the numerical,

The abscissa ( or x-coordinate ) is = 4

The ordinate ( or y-coordinate ) is = ( 3/4 )× 4

                                                        = 3

So, the point is = ( 4, 3 )

Now, since both the abscissa and the ordinate are positive so by bullet point 3, the point lies in the First Quadrant.

Hence, the point is ( 4, 3 ) and it lies in the first quadrant.
