Question 15 Marks
Find the coordinates of points P, Q, R and S in Figure.
Answer

Draw perpendiculars PA, QB, RC and SD from vertices P, Q, R and S on the x-axis.
Also ,draw perpendiculars.
PE, QF, RG and SH on the y-axis from these points.
PE = 10 units and PA = 70 units.
Therefore, the coordinates of vertex P are (10, 70).
QF = 12 units and QB = 80 units
Therefore, the coordinates of vertex Q are (12, 80).
RG = 16 units and RC = 100 units
Therefore, the coordinates of vertex R are (16, 100).
SH = 20 units and SD = 120 units
Therefore, the coordinates of vertex S are (20, 120).

Answer
  1.  
  1.  

Here, time is an independent variable and temperature is a dependent variable. So, we take time on the x-axis and temperature on the y-axis.
Let us choose the following scale:
For point (i):
  • On x-axis: $1 cm=1$ hours
  • On y-axis: $1 cm=2^{\circ} F$
​For point (ii):
  • On x-axis: $2 cm=2$ hours
  • On y-axis: $1 cm=1^{\circ} F$
Let us assume that on the $x$-axis, the coordinate of origin is 6:00.
On $y$-axis, the coordinate of origin is $94^{\circ} F$.
So, the coordinates of $O$ are $(6: 00,94)$.
Now, let us plot $(7: 00,100),(9: 00,101),(11: 00,104), \quad(21: 00,98)$ for point
(i) and $(8: 00,100),(10: 00,101),(12: 00$, 104), __, (20:00, 100) for point
(ii). These points are joined to get the graphs representing the given information as shown in the figures below.

Question 125 Marks
Write the coordinates of each of the vertices of each polygon in Figure.
Answer

From the figure:
We have:
In polygon OXYZ:
  • O lies on the origin and the coordinates of the origin are (0, 0). So, the coordinates of O are (0, 0).
  • X lies on the y-axis. So, the x-coordinate is 0. Hence, the coordinate of X is (0, 2).
  • Also, YX is equal to 2 units and YZ is equal to 2 units. So, the coordinates of vertex Y are (2, 2).
  • Z lies on the x-axis. So, the y-coordinate is 0. Hence, the coordinates of Z are (2, 0).
In polygon ABCD:
  • Draw perpendiculars DG, AH, CI and BJ from A, B, C and D on the x-axis.
  • Also, draw perpendiculars DF, AE, CF and BE from A, B, C and D on the y-axis.
  • Now, from the figure:
  • DF = 3 units and DG = 3 units
  • Therefore, the coordinates of D are (3, 3).
  • AE = 4 units and AH = 5 units
  • Therefore, the coordinates of A are (4, 5).
  • CF = 6 units and CI = 3 units
  • Therefore, the coordinates of C are (6, 3).
  • BE = 7 units and BJ = 5 units
  • Coordinates of B are (7, 5).Therefore, the c
In polygon PQR:
  • Draw perpendiculars PJ, QK and RK from P, Q and R on the x-axis.
  • Also, draw perpendiculars PW, QE and RF from P, Q and R on the y-axis.
  • Now, from the figure:
  • PW = 7 units and PJ = 4 units
  • Therefore, the coordinates of P are (7, 4).
  • QE = 9 units and QK = 5 units
  • Therefore, the coordinates of Q are (9, 5).
  • RF = 9 units and RK = 3 units
  • Therefore, the coordinates of R are (9, 3).
