Example 2. The graph of the equation ay + b = 0, (a, b are constants) is
- Parallel to X-axis
- Parallel to y-axis
- Not parallel to any axis
- Passing through origin
Solution: The correct answer is 1. parallel to X-axis
⇒ Y = const is parallel to X-axis.
The graph of the equation ay + b = 0, (a, b are constants) is const is parallel to X-axis.
Example 3. The graph of the equation 2x + 3y = 0 is
- Parallel to X-axis
- Parallel to Y-axis
- Passing through the origin.
- Passing through (2, 0)
Solution: The correct answer is 3. not parallel to any axis
⇒ ax + by = 0 is passing through origin as a·0 + b·0 = 0

Example 4. The graph of the equation cx + d = 0 (c & d are constants c ≠ 0) will be Y-axis when
- d = -c
- d = c
- d = 0
- d = 1
Solution: The correct answer is 3. d = 0
⇒ The equation of Y-axis is X = 0

Example 5. The graph of the equation ay + b = 0, (a, b are constants, a ≠ 0) will be X-axis, when
- b = a
- b = -a
- b = 2
- b = 0
Solution: The correct answer is 4. b = 0
⇒ The equation of the X axis is Y = 0
Example 6. (-2,-3) lies in the
- 1st quadrant
- 2nd quadrant
- 3rd quadrant
- 4th quadrant
Solution: The correct answer is 3. 3rd quadrant
⇒ (-,-) lies in the 3rd quadrant.
Example 7. The type of straight line is represented by y = 2 is
- Parallel to X axis
- Parallel to Y axis
- Passing through origin
- None of these
Solution: The correct answer is 1. parallel to X axis
Example 8. The value of abscissa of each point on the Y-axis
- 0
- 1
- Constant
- None of these
Solution: The correct answer is 1. 0
The value of abscissa of each point on the Y-axis 0.
Example 9. Distance of the point (q) from X axis is
- q unit
- p unit
- \(\sqrt{p^2 \times q^2}\) unit
- None of these
Solution: The correct answer is 1. q unit
⇒ Value of ordinate is the distance from X axis.
Distance of the point (q) from X axis is q unit
Example 10. The distance between the two points (4, 0) and (-6, 0) is
- 10 units
- 4 units
- 6 units
- None of these
Solution: The correct answer is 1. 10 units
⇒ Required distance (x1 – x2) units
= (4 – 6) units = 10 units
The distance between the two points (4, 0) and (-6, 0) is 10 units
