What to Focus On
- Abscissa means x-coordinate.
- Ordinate means y-coordinate.
- Points on the x-axis have form (x, 0).
- Distance on the x-axis is found by subtracting x-values.
- Distance on the y-axis is found by subtracting y-values.
- Distance from the origin uses OP = √(x² + y²).
- Use the distance formula to compare side lengths.
- Three points form a triangle if the sum of any two distances is greater than the third.
- A quadrilateral with all four sides equal and equal diagonals is a square.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
The distance formula changes if the order of the points changes.
Abscissa means distance from the x-axis and ordinate means distance from the y-axis.
The section formula uses the same ratio with the same endpoint in both coordinates.
Memory Tips
Abscissa is the x-coordinate and is the distance from the y-axis
Ordinate is the y-coordinate and is the distance from the x-axis
Coordinates of a point on the x-axis are of the form (x, 0)
Coordinates of a point on the y-axis are of the form (0, y)
