The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will plot the given points on a graph sheet and check if they lie on a straight line. If they do not, we will identify the shape they form when joined in the given order. ### Part (i): Points A(0, 2), B(0, 3.5), C(0, 5), D(0, 6) 1. **Draw the Axes**: Begin by drawing the x-axis and y-axis on the graph sheet. Label the axes appropriately. **Hint**: Remember that the x-axis is horizontal and the y-axis is vertical. 2. **Plot the Points**: - A(0, 2): Start at the origin (0,0), move up to 2 on the y-axis. - B(0, 3.5): From the origin, move up to 3.5 on the y-axis. - C(0, 5): From the origin, move up to 5 on the y-axis. - D(0, 6): From the origin, move up to 6 on the y-axis. **Hint**: All points have the same x-coordinate (0), so they will be vertically aligned. 3. **Join the Points**: Connect the points A, B, C, and D in order. 4. **Check for Straight Line**: Since all points have the same x-coordinate, they lie on a vertical line. **Conclusion**: The points A, B, C, and D lie on a straight line. --- ### Part (ii): Points P(1, 3), Q(1, 5), R(3, 3), S(3, 5) 1. **Draw the Axes**: Draw the x-axis and y-axis again. 2. **Plot the Points**: - P(1, 3): Move to (1, 3). - Q(1, 5): Move to (1, 5). - R(3, 3): Move to (3, 3). - S(3, 5): Move to (3, 5). **Hint**: Notice that P and Q share the same x-coordinate, and R and S share another x-coordinate. 3. **Join the Points**: Connect the points P, Q, R, and S in order. 4. **Check for Shape**: The points form two vertical lines (PQ and RS) and two horizontal lines (QR and PS), creating a rectangle. **Conclusion**: The points P, Q, R, and S form a rectangle. --- ### Part (iii): Points E(4, 5), F(5, 5), G(5, 7), H(6, 5) 1. **Draw the Axes**: Draw the x-axis and y-axis. 2. **Plot the Points**: - E(4, 5): Move to (4, 5). - F(5, 5): Move to (5, 5). - G(5, 7): Move to (5, 7). - H(6, 5): Move to (6, 5). **Hint**: Notice that E, F, and H have the same y-coordinate (5). 3. **Join the Points**: Connect the points E, F, G, and H in order. 4. **Check for Shape**: The points form a triangle when connected. **Conclusion**: The points E, F, G, and H form a triangle. --- ### Part (iv): Points L(2, 0), M(2, 3), N(0, 3), O(0, 0) 1. **Draw the Axes**: Draw the x-axis and y-axis. 2. **Plot the Points**: - L(2, 0): Move to (2, 0). - M(2, 3): Move to (2, 3). - N(0, 3): Move to (0, 3). - O(0, 0): Move to (0, 0). **Hint**: L and M share the same x-coordinate, and N and O share another x-coordinate. 3. **Join the Points**: Connect the points L, M, N, and O in order. 4. **Check for Shape**: The points form a rectangle. **Conclusion**: The points L, M, N, and O form a rectangle. --- ### Part (v): Points J(4, 3), K(6, 1), L(6, 5), M(4, 7) 1. **Draw the Axes**: Draw the x-axis and y-axis. 2. **Plot the Points**: - J(4, 3): Move to (4, 3). - K(6, 1): Move to (6, 1). - L(6, 5): Move to (6, 5). - M(4, 7): Move to (4, 7). **Hint**: Notice the different y-coordinates for points K and L. 3. **Join the Points**: Connect the points J, K, L, and M in order. 4. **Check for Shape**: The points form a parallelogram. **Conclusion**: The points J, K, L, and M form a parallelogram. --- ### Summary of Shapes Formed: 1. Part (i): Straight Line 2. Part (ii): Rectangle 3. Part (iii): Triangle 4. Part (iv): Rectangle 5. Part (v): Parallelogram
