Question

Find the ordinate of all points on the X-axis.
​

Answer 1

(a) Ordinate of all points on the X-axis is zero. Because ordinate (or y-coordinate) of a point is perpendicular distance of this point from the X-axis measured along the Y-axis. If point lies on X- axis, then the perpendicular distance of point from X- axis will be zero, so ordinate will be zero.
