Consider the following three statements.
Statement-1 : The x-coordinate is called ordinate.
Statement-2 : The y-coordinate is called abscissa.
Statement-3 : To express the coordinates of a point in the cartesian plane, the abscissa comes first and then the ordinate comes.
Which of the following is true?
Statements 1 and 2 are false and statement 3 is true.
x coordinate = abscissa.Hence, Statement 1 is false
y coordinate = ordinate.Hence, Statement 2 is false
By definition, only statement 3 is true.
