Solution

The correct option is B False
Explanation.
The cartesian coordinates are of the form $(x, y)$ .
The first number in the ordered pair is called the abscissa.
The second number in the ordered pair is called the ordinate.
The coordinates of a point whose ordinate is $\frac{- 1}{2}$ and abscissa is $1$ is $(1, - \frac{1}{2})$
Hence, the given statement is False.
