Q1.
Find the point which lies on the y-axis at a distance of 5 units in the negative direction of y-axis.
(Marks : 1)
Solution : Since the point lies on the y-axis, its x- coordinate is 0.
Also, the point is at a distance of 5 units in the negative direction of y-axis, therfore the required point is (0,
-5). ( 1 mark)
Q2.
(i) Write the coordinates of a point which lies on the positive x -axis and which is at a distance of 6 units
from the origin.
(ii) Write the coordinates of a point which lies on positive y -axis and is at a distance of 5 units from the
origin.
(Marks : 1)
Solution : (i) On the x-axis, y co-ordinate = 0. Hence, the coordinates are (6, 0). (1/2 mark)
(ii) (0, 5) is the point which is at a distance of 5 units from the origin and lies on the y-axis. (1/2 mark)
