The position of a point in a place can be given by its coordinates, i.e the signed distance of the point from perpendicular axis. The x-coordinate is called the abscissa and the y-coordinate the ordinate.
The coordinates form an ordered pair with abscissa written first.
For example, the coordinates of A (4,3)
Coordinates for a general point are taken as (x,y)
