Open in App

Solution

Write the name of horizontal and vertical lines that are drawn to determine the position of any point in the Cartesian plane.
The horizontal line that is drawn to determine the position of any point in the Cartesian plane is said to be the $x - axis$ .
The vertical line that is drawn to determine the position of any point in the Cartesian plane is said to be the $y - axis$ .
The diagram of the cartesian plane is shown below:
Hence, the horizontal and vertical lines in the Cartesian plane are called the $x - axis$ and the $y - axis$ .
