Algebra - Co-ordinate Geometry Notes & Question for ICSE Class 10 2021

Co-ordinate Geometry Syllabus for ICSE Board 2021


 (a) Reflection

(i) Reflection of a point in a line:

x=0, y =0, x= a, y=a, the origin.

(ii) Reflection of a point in the origin.

(iii) Invariant points.

(b) Co-ordinates expressed as (x, y), Section

formula, Midpoint formula, Concept of

slope, equation of a line, Various forms of

straight lines.

(i) Section and Mid-point formula

(Internal section only, co-ordinates of

the centroid of a triangle included).

(ii)Equation of a line:

 Slope –intercept form y = mx + c

 Two- point form (y-y1) = m(x-x1)

Geometric understanding of ‘m’ as

slope/ gradient/ tanθ where θ is the

angle the line makes with the positive

direction of the x- axis.

Geometric understanding of ‘c’ as

the y-intercept/the ordinate of the

point where the line intercepts the y

axis/ the point on the line where x=0.

Simple applications of all the above

Reflection of a point in a line:






Reflection via Origin

Invariant points are points on a line or shape which do not move when a specific transformation is applied. Points which are invariant under one transformation may not be invariant under a different transformation.








Section Formula & Mid Point Formula

1) Use the Formula Wisely

2) Point I,II as points for error free calculation or write down all x1,x2,y1,y2,m,n value for easy calculations.

3)Too find Ration, dont take m:n instead take k:1

4)  co-ordinates of the centroid of a triangle divides in 2:1 ration ( important )

a) Intercept form
