c) P(1,-6) and Q(17,6) d) R(7,-5) and U(-5,4) e) T(-2,7) and U(6,8)

3. Solve the following problems.

a) AB is a straight line b) In a Cartesian plane, c) Which of the points
on a Cartesian plane. PQ is a parallel to the X(-3,8) and Y(5,-7) is
Point B lies vertically x-axis. The distance closer to the origin?
below point A(3,6) between points P and Q
and the length of AB is 4 units and the
is 8 units. Find the coordinates of Q are 3. Given that A(–3,7) and B(–3,3), 4. Find the coordinates of the
coordinates of point B. (4,2). Find the find the midpoint of AB. midpoint of the points P(–2,6) and
coordinates of point P. Q(6,12).

5. Given that the points S(–4,6) and 6. Given that the points L(–5, –7) and
T(7,6), find the length of ST. M(–5,12), find the length of LM.

7. The diagram shows a right-angled

triangle, PQR. Given that the area of
triangle PQR is 21 unit2 , find
(a) the value of h,
(b) the length of PR.
Answer:
a) b)
Form 2 - Chapter 8 Coordinates 2. Plot and state coordinates.
Simple notes for this chapter. When do this, remember (先看X, 再看Y)
8.1 Coordinates位置 (X,Y) eg(5,-1) ***origin = (0,0)
1. Cartesian plane 8.2 Scales比例 for the Coordinates
(直) y- axis x-axis = 1:2 y-axis = 1:1

(横)
x-axis

8.3 Distance between two points in a Cartesian plane

straight just count the box or Pythagoras Theorem formula

8.4 Midpoint 中点

1. Formula of midpoint:
Example of midpoint formula is shown above.

Other practice for the subtopic distance

between and midpoint can try to do the left side
or upside on this page.

Do it in A4 Paper.

Other exercise for the subtopic can try to do

on the next page.
