the assignment questions:
Study material: Chapters 6 and 7 of the Study Guide
Question 1
If a vertical and horizontal number line intersect perpendicularly, they form right angles (of 90°)
with each other and a co-ordinate system of axes is formed, the horizontal line is called:
[1] Quadrants
[2] 𝑦-axis
[3] Co-ordinates
[4] 𝑥-axis
Answer:
Refer to page 103 of the study guide:
If a vertical and horizontal number line intersect perpendicularly, they form right angles (of 90°)
with each other and a co-ordinate system of axes is formed. These two lines intersect to form 4
