Question

How will you describe the position of a table lamp on your study table to another
person?​

Answer 1

Answer:

To describe the position of a table lamp on the study table, we have two take two lines, a perpendicular and horizontal.

Considering the table as a plane and taking the perpendicular line as Y axis and horizontal as X axis.

Take one corner of the table as origin where both X and Yaxes intersect each other.

Now, the length of the table is Y axis and breadth is Xaxis.

From the origin, join the line to the lamp and mark a point.

Calculate the distance of this point from both X and Y axes and then write it in terms of coordinates.

Let the distance of a point from X axis is x and from Y axis is y then the position of the table lamp in terms of coordinates is (x,y).
