Draw the graph of the line $x + y = 5$. Use the graph paper drawn to find the inclination and the $y-$intercept of the line.
AnswerGiven line is
$x + y = 5$
The graph of the given line is shown below.

From the given line $x + y = 5$, we get
$x + y = 5$
$y = - x + 5$
$y = (-1) . x + 5\dots .......(A)$
Again we know that equation of any straight line in the form $y = mx + c$,
where m is the gradient and $c$ is the intercept.
Again we have if slope of a line is $\tan \theta $ then inclination of the line is $\theta $
Now from the equation $(A)$, we have
$m = - 1$
$\tan \theta = - 1$
$\tan \theta = \tan 135^\circ $
$\theta = 135^\circ $
And $c = 5$
$Therefore$ the required inclination is $\theta = 135^\circ $ and $y-$intercept is $c = 5$ View full question & answer→Question 25 Marks
For the pair of linear equations given below, draw graphs and then state, whether the lines drawn are parallel or perpendicular to each other.$2x - 3y = 6;\frac{x}{2}+\frac{y}{3}=1$
AnswerTo draw the graph of $2x - 3y = 6$ and $\frac{x}{2}+\frac{y}{3}=1$ follows the steps:
First prepare a table as below:

| $Y=\frac{2}{3} \times 2$ |
$-\frac{8}{3}$ |
$-2$ |
$-\frac{4}{3}$ |
| $Y=-\frac{3}{2} \times+3$ |
$\frac{9}{2}$ |
$3$ |
$\frac{3}{2}$ |
Now sketch the graph as shown:

From the graph it can verify that the lines are perpendicular. View full question & answer→Question 35 Marks
Use the graphical method to show that the straight lines given by the equations $x + y = 2, x - 2y = 5$ and $\frac{x}{3}+y=0$ pass through the same point.
AnswerThe equations can be written as follows:
$y = 2 - x$
$ y =\frac{1}{2}(x-5)$
$y =-\frac{x}{3}$
First prepare a table as follows:
| $X$ |
$Y = 2 - x$ |
$Y=\frac{1}{2}(x-5)$ |
$Y =-\frac{x}{3}$ |
| $- 1$ |
$3$ |
$- 3$ |
$\frac{1}{3}$ |
| $0$ |
$2$ |
$-\frac{5}{2}$ |
$0$ |
| $1$ |
$1$ |
$- 2$ |
$-\frac{1}{3}$ |
Thus the graph can be drawn as follows:

From the graph it is clear that the equation of lines are passes through the same point. View full question & answer→Question 45 Marks

$A (- 2, 2), B(8, 2)$ and $C(4, - 4)$ are the vertices of a parallelogram $\text{ABCD}$.
By plotting the given points on a graph paper; find the co$-$ordinates of the fourth vertex $D$.
Also, form the samegraph,state the co$-$ordinates of the mid$-$points of the sides $AB$ and $CD$.
AnswerPlot the points $A, B,$ and $C$ on the graph paper.
Join the points to complete the parallelogram $\text{ABCD}$.
As the distance between points $A$ and $B$ is $10$ units,
distance between the corners of the opposite side $C$ and $D$ will also be $10$ units.

Hence, the fourth point $D = (- 6, - 4)$
Mid point of $AB$ will lie at $5$ units distance from $A$ and $B$ both which is $= (3, 2)$
Mid point of $CD$ will lie at $5$ units distance from $C$ and $D$ both which is $= (-1, -4)$ View full question & answer→Question 65 Marks
