Overview

Coordinate Geometry is a fundamental branch of mathematics that combines algebra and geometry to describe the position of points on a plane. This chapter introduces the Cartesian system, developed by French mathematician René Descartes, which allows us to locate any point using two perpendicular ref

Key Concepts

A system that uses two perpendicular

A system that uses two perpendicular number lines (axes) to locate points on a plane. The horizontal line is called the x-axis and the vertical line i

Every point on the coordinate plane

Every point on the coordinate plane is represented by an ordered pair (x,y), where x is the abscissa (distance from y-axis) and y is the ordinate (dis

The coordinate axes divide the plane

The coordinate axes divide the plane into four regions called quadrants, numbered I, II, III, and IV in anticlockwise direction. Each quadrant has spe

The origin O(0

The origin O(0,0) is where both axes intersect. Points on the x-axis have coordinates (x,0) and points on the y-axis have coordinates (0,y). The axes
