If the perpendicular distance of a point $P$ from the $x-$axis is $5$ units and the foot of the perpendicular lies on the negative direction of $x-$axis, then the point $P$ has.
- ✓
$y$ coordinate $= 5$ or $-5$
- B
$x$ coordinate $= -5$
- C
$y$ coordinate $= 5$ only
- D

If $P (-1,1), Q (3,-4), R (1,-1), S (-2,-3)$ and $T (-4,4)$ are plotted on the graph paper, then the point(s) in the fourth quadrant are:
- ✓
$Q$ and $R$
- B
Only $S$
- C
$P$ and $T$
- D
$P$ and $R$
AnswerCorrect option: A. $Q$ and $R$
In point $P(-1,1)$, $x$-coordinate is -1 unit and $y$-coordinate is 1 unit, so it lies in II nd quadrant. Similarly, we can plot all the points $Q(3$, $-4), R(1,-1), S(-2,-3)$ and $T(-4,4)$, It is clear from the graph that points $R$ and $Q$ lie in fourth quadrant.

Directions: In the following questions, the Assertions $(A)$ and Reason$(s)$ $(R)$ have been put forward. Read both the statements carefully and choose the correct alternative from the following:
Assertion: By using graph we can locate $(0, 4)$ on the $y - $axis.
Reason: A point whose $y - $coordinate is zero lies on the $x - $axis.
- A
Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.
- ✓
Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.
- C
Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
- D
Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect.
AnswerCorrect option: B. Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.
Obviously, by using graph, we can easily locate $(0, 4)$ on the $y -$ axis,
as any point on the $y -$ axis has the form $(0, a)$, where a is any number. Hence, it is correct.
Also, a point whose $y -$ coordinate is zero lies on the $x -$ axis,
as any point on the $x -$ axis has the form $(a,0)$, where a is any number. Hence, it is correct.
But clearly, the reason is not the correct explanation for the assertion.

For the point to lie on the line $y=3 x+4$, it has to satisfy the equation of the line.
Putting $x=1$, in $y=3 x+4$, we get $y=3(1)+4 \Rightarrow y=7$
So, the point satisfies the equation and hence lies on the given line.
Putting $x=2$, in $y=3 x+4$, we get $y=3(2)+4 \Rightarrow y=10$
So, the point satisfies the equation and hence lies on the given line.
Putting $x=1$, in $y=3 x+4$, we get $y=3(-1)+4 \Rightarrow y=1$
So, the point satisfies the equation and hence lies on the given line.
Putting $x=4$, in $y=3 x+4$, we get $y=3(4)+4 \Rightarrow y=16$
But $y=12$.
So, the point not satisfy the equation and hence lies on the given line.

For the point to lie on the line $y=2 x+3$, it has to satisfy the equation of the line.
Putting $x=2$, in $y=2 x+3$, we get $y=2(2)+3 \Rightarrow y=7$
But $y=8$.
So, the point does not satisfy the equation and hence does not lie on the given line.
Putting $x=3$, in $y=2 x+3$, we get $y=2(3)+3 \Rightarrow y=9$
So, the point satisfies the equation and hence lies on the given line.
Putting $x=4$, in $y=2 x+3$, we get $y=2(4)+3 \Rightarrow y=11$
But $y=12$.
So, the point does not satisfy the equation and hence does not lie on the given line.
Putting $x=5$, in $y=2 x+3$, we get $y=2(5)+3 \Rightarrow y=13$
But $y =15$.
So, the point does not satisfy the equation and hence does not lie on the given line.
