We need __________ coordinates for representing a point on the graph sheet

Solution:

We need a pair of coordinates for representing a point on the graph sheet.

As evident from the graph below any point has to have a reference which comprises two ordinates or pair of coordinates to ascertain its position on the graph.

Each of the points A, B and C need two coordinates to fix their position on the graph. A has x1, y1 as a pair of coordinates. B has x2 and y2 as coordinates and C has x3 and y3 as coordinates.

✦ Try This: The point (2,3) is _________ units away from the x-axis.

The point (2,3) is three units away from the x-axis.

The graph below shows the point P(2,3) on the x-y plane and it is 3 units away from the x-axis.
