Question

Seg AB is parallel to x-axis and co-ordinates of point A are (1, 3) then co-ordinates of point B can be _________.​

Answer 1

Answer:

(X,y)

Step-by-step explanation:

AB|| x-axis

A = 1,3

CD||y-axis

B=2,4

Answer 2

Answer:

Segment AB is parallel to X-axis and co-ordinates of point A are (1,3) then coordinates of point B will be (x,3) where x is any number except 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Segment AB is parallel to X-axis, this means that the y co-ordinate of A and B will be same.

The equation for X axis is y = 0 therefore the equation for line parallel to X axis becomes y = k where k is any integer.

2) Co-ordinates of point A are (1,3). Therefore the value of ordinate (y co-ordinate) is 3. The segment AB will have equation y = 3.

3) Point B will lie on the line y = 3. The abscissa (x co-ordinate) of Point B can be any value expect 1 or otherwise segment will become a point.

4) So the co-ordinates of B are ( x,3) where x is any number except 1.
