MCQ

A point at which all the three perpendicular coordinate axes meets is known as:

A
Meeting point
B
Origin
C
Triple point
D
None of these

✓

Answer

Origin

Solution:

The three perpendicular coordinate axes meets at one of the point which divides the plane into eight quadrant.

The 1st quadrant has all positive points, 2nd has x -ve and remaining 2 +ve points and so on.

Only (0, 0, 0) is not included in any quadrant and is the intersection point.

Thus, the three axes meet at (0, 0,0) from where the eight quadrants originate.

Hence, the point is known as origin.
