Solution

The given point lies on the x -axis.

Any point in space can be represented with the help of three points ( x,y,z ) , where x , y and z represent respectively, its distance from the origin along the x , y and z -axis.

Since, the given point lies on the x -axis, its distance from the origin along the y and z -axis are zero.

Therefore, the y and z -coordinates of the given point are zero.
