Class 10 Maths 2 Chapter 5 Coordinate Geometry Worksheet
Practise Maharashtra Board Class 10 Maths 2 Chapter 5 Coordinate Geometry with MCQs, plotting points, distance formula, section formula, slope, equations of lines and board-exam-style questions.
Class 10 Coordinate Geometry Worksheet
This Coordinate Geometry worksheet is designed for Maharashtra State Board students who want structured practice after studying Chapter 5. It includes questions based on the coordinate plane, quadrants, distance between two points, section formula, midpoint, slope and equations of straight lines.
The worksheet begins with concept-based multiple-choice questions and gradually moves towards calculations and board-exam-style applications. Students should substitute coordinates carefully, preserve positive and negative signs and show each mathematical step on a separate line.
Coordinate Plane
Plot ordered pairs and identify the quadrant, axis and position of each point.
Distance and Section
Calculate distances, midpoints and coordinates of points that divide line segments.
Slope and Lines
Calculate slope and use coordinate relationships to study straight lines.
Important Coordinate Geometry Formulae
- Write every point as an ordered pair in the form (x, y).
- Move horizontally according to the x-coordinate and vertically according to the y-coordinate.
- Keep brackets around coordinate differences before squaring.
- Maintain the same order of points in the numerator and denominator while calculating slope.
- A point on the x-axis has y = 0, while a point on the y-axis has x = 0.
Types of Questions Included
Multiple-Choice Questions
MCQs test ordered pairs, quadrants, signs of coordinates, distance, midpoint, section formula and slope.
Plotting Points
Students plot points on the Cartesian plane and identify their quadrants or positions on the coordinate axes.
Distance Formula Questions
These questions require students to substitute two ordered pairs, simplify the squared differences and calculate the positive square root.
Section Formula and Midpoint
Students find the coordinates of a point dividing a line segment in a given ratio. Midpoint questions are treated as division in the ratio 1:1.
Slope and Straight Lines
Students calculate slope, compare slopes and use coordinate relationships to study parallel or collinear points.
Board-Exam-Style Problems
Mixed questions combine graphs, algebra and geometry to develop complete Maharashtra SSC examination preparation.
How to Solve Coordinate Geometry Questions
- Write the coordinates of all given points clearly.
- Identify the formula required by the question.
- Assign (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) consistently.
- Substitute negative coordinates inside brackets.
- Simplify every coordinate difference carefully.
- Calculate squares and products one step at a time.
- Simplify the square root or coordinate fractions.
- Write the final answer as a length, slope or ordered pair.
Benefits of Practising This Worksheet

Common Mistakes Students Should Avoid
- Do not interchange the x-coordinate and y-coordinate.
- Do not ignore the negative sign of a coordinate.
- Do not square only one coordinate difference.
- Do not combine the x-part and y-part of the section formula.
- Do not reverse only one difference while calculating slope.
- Do not write a negative value for distance.
- Do not write coordinates without brackets and a comma.
- Check the quadrant before accepting a plotted point.
