Question 1 and Question 2 are based on the following statement:
If a vertical and horizontal number line intersect each other, they form a right angle (an angle of
90 degrees), and a co-ordinate system of axes is formed.
Question 1
The horizontal line is called a
[1] quadrant.
[2] 𝑦-axis.
[3] co-ordinate.
[4] 𝑥-axis.
Question 2
The point at which the two axes intersect (cross each other) is called a/an
[1] quadrant.
[2] vertex.
[3] origin.
[4] turning point.
Question 3
Which of the following is the formula for calculating the slope of a straight line?
𝑦 −𝑦
[1] 1 2
𝑥1 −𝑥2
𝑦2 −𝑦1
[2]
𝑥1 −𝑥2
𝑥2 −𝑥1
[3]
𝑦2 −𝑦1
𝑥2 −𝑦2
[4]
𝑥1 −𝑦1
