Coordinate of a Point in XY – Plane

The Perpendicular distance of x a point from the y-axis is called its x-coordinate or abscissa. The perpendicular distance y of a point from the x-axis is called its y-coordinate or ordinate. The x and y taken together in order is called coordinte of point denoted by (x, y).
The coordinate of the points on x-axis are of the form (x, 0) and the points on the y-axis are of the form(0, y). Coordinate of origin is (0, 0).

Sign-conventions in the XY-Plane

The x and y-axis divide the plane into four parts known as quadrants denoted by I, II, III and IV. The sign of x and y-coordinates in each of the quadrant is shown below:

Distance Formula

The distance between any two points
P(x1, y1) and Q(x2, y2) in the plane is given by,

Also the distance of the point P(x1, y1) from the origin is

Section Formula

The coordinates of the point P(x, y) which divides the line segment joining the points A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2) externally in the ratio, m1 : m2 i.e., PAPB=m1m2 are

(iii) If the ratio in which P divides AB is K : 1, then the coordinates of the point P will be

Mid-Point Formula

The coordinates of the mid point P of the line segment joining the points A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2) is

Area of a Triangle

The area of ∆ABC formed by the vertices A(x1, y1), B(x2, y2) is given by

Note:
(i) Area of triangle = 12 × base × Altitude
(ii) Area of polygon can be calculated by dividing it into the triangular region.
(iii) If three points are collinear then area of the triangle formed by them is zero.
