VI. Short Answer Type Questions:

Question 1.
A point lies on X-axis at a distance of 9 units from Y-axis. What are its coord in ates? JVVhat will be the coordinates of a point, if it lies on Y-axis at a distance of 9 units from X-axis in negative direction?
Answer:
We know that, coordinates of any point lies on X-axis at the distance ‘a’ from the Y-axis are (a, 0) and (- a, 0).
Since, the given point lies on X-axis at a distance of 9 units from Y-axis, so its coordinates are (9, 0) or (- 9, 0).
Now, if point lies on Y-axis at a distance of 9 emits from X-axis in negative direction, then its coordinates are (0, -9).

(i) (4, - 2)
(ii) (- 3, 7)
(iii) (- 1, - 2)
(iv) (3, 6)
Answer:
(i) ∴ Points of the type (+, -) lies in IV quadrant.
∴ The point (4, - 2) lies in IV quadrant.

(ii) ∴ Points of the type (-, +) lies in II quadrant.
∴ The point (- 3, 7) lies in II quadrant.

(iii) ∴ Points of the type (-, -) lies in III quadrant.
∴ The point (-1,-2) lies in III quadrant.

(iv) ∴ Points of the type (+, +) lies in I quadrant.
∴ The point (3, 6) lies in I quadrant.

Question 2.
Draw a quadrilateral whose vertices are the points having coordinates as (- 5, 5), (5, 5), (5, - 5), (- 5, - 5). Write the special name of the quadrilateral so obtained. Also, find the area of the quadrilateral.
Answer:
Let us draw the coordinate axes XOX' and YOY'.
Let the points corresponding to the coordinates (- 5, 5), (5, 5), (5, - 5) and (- 5, - 5) be A, B, C and D respectively.
Now, let 1 unit = 1 cm. Then, the points A, B, C and D can be plotted as shown below:
RBSE Class 9 Maths Important Questions Chapter 3 Coordinate Geometry 9
On joining A, B, C and D adjacently, we obtain a quadrilateral ABCD.
Here, all four sides are equal and diagonals are also equal.
∴The name of the quadrilateral, so obtained is the square ABCD.
Since, ABCD is a square and we know that, area of a square is equal to (Side)2.
∴ Area of square ABCD = (Side)2 = (10)2 = 100 sq units Hence, the area of the quadrilateral is 100 sq units.

Question 3.
In figure, ∆ABC is an equilateral triangle with coordinates of B and C as B(1, 0) and C(5, 0). Find the coordinates of vertex A.
RBSE Class 9 Maths Important Questions Chapter 3 Coordinate Geometry 10
Answer:
Let D be the middle point of BC. Join AD.
Then, ∠BDA = 90°
∵AABC is an equilateral triangle.
∴AB = AC = BC
⇒ BC = 5 - 1 = 4 = AB
⇒ BD = 3 - 1 = 2
In right triangle BDA,
AB2 = AD2 + BD2 (By Pythagoras Theorem)
⇒ (4)2 = AD2 + (2)2
⇒ 16 = AD2 + 4
⇒ AD2 = 12
⇒ AD = 2√3
∴ A → (3, 2√3)
