Question

Find the coordinates with ordinate as $3$.

• A. $C(-4,3)$
• B. $E(6,3)$
• C. $F(-4,-3)$
• D. $G(5,-3)$

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B)

Since the ordinate or the $y$-coordinate is $3$, we need to look for the points lying on the horizontal line passing through $y=3$ or the points which have $y$ - coordinate $=3$.

Observing the graph, both the points $C$ and $E$ are the points which have $y$ - coordinate $=3.$

As the $x$-coordinate of $C$ is $-4$, $C=(-4,3)$ .
As the $x$-coordinate of $E$ is $6$, $E=(6,3)$.

Hence, the ccordinates $C=(-4,3)$ and $E=(6,3)$ have ordinate equal to $3.$

Therefore, options $A$ and $B$ are correct.
