For the point to lie on the line $y = 3x + 4,$ it has to satisfy the equation of the line.
Putting $x = 1,$ in $y = 3x + 4,$ 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 $y = 3x + 4,$ 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 $y = 3x + 4,$ 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 $y = 3x + 4,$ 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.

The area of $\triangle\text{AOB}$ having vertices $A(0, 6), O(0, 0)$ and $B(6, 0)$ is :
  • A
    $12$ sq units.
  • B
    $36$ sq units.
  • ✓
    $18$ sq units.
  • D
    $24$ sq units.
Answer
Correct option: C.
$18$ sq units.

Clearly, $\triangle\text{AOB}$ is a right $-$ angled triangle.
$\therefore$ Area of $\triangle\text{AOB}=\frac{1}{2}\times\text{Base}\times\text{Height}$
$=\frac{1}{2}\times\text{OB}\times\text{OA}$
$=\frac{1}{2}\times6\times6$
$= 18$ square units.

The point $($other than origin$)$ for which abscissa is equal to the ordinate will lie in quadrant.
  • A
    $I$ only
  • B
    $I$ or $II$
  • ✓
    $I$ or $III$
  • D
    $II$ or $IV$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$I$ or $III$

The points are same when they are of the form $(m, m)$ or $(-n, -n).$
This happens only in quadrant $I$ and quadrant $III$.
So, the points $($other than the origin$)$ for which the abscissa is equal to the ordinate lie in quadrant $I$ and quadrant $III$.

MCQ 151 Mark
Which of the following points lies on the line $y = 2x + 3$?
  • A
    $(2, 8)$
  • ✓
    $(3, 9)$
  • C
    $(4, 12)$
  • D
    $(5, 15)$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$(3, 9)$
For the point to lie on the line $y = 2x + 3,$ it has to satisfy the equation of the line.
Putting $x = 2,$ in $y = 2x + 3,$ 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 $y = 2x + 3,$ 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 $y = 2x + 3,$ 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 $y = 2x + 3,$ 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.

The points $(-5, 3)$ and $(3, -5)$ lie in the.
  • A
    same quadrant
  • B
    $II$ and $III$ quadrants respectively.
  • ✓
    $II$ and $IV$ quadrants respectively.
  • D
    $IV$ and $II$ quadrants respectively.
Answer

Hence, it lies in Quadrant $II$.
For point $(3, -5),$ the $x$  co $-$ ordinate is positive and the $y$  co $-$ ordinate is negative.
Hence, it lies in Quadrant $IV$.
