(iii) (−5, −7)

(iv) (7, −4)

(v) (−3, 2)

(vi) (7, 0)

(vii) (−4, 0)

(viii) (0, 7)

Answer 1

The following points are given below.

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)

(v)

(vi)

(vii)

(viii)

(ix)

(x)

Letand be the coordinate axes.

(i) Here for the given point the abscissa is 2 units and ordinate is 5 units.

The point is in the first quadrant. So it will look like as shown in the following figure.

(ii) Here for the given point the abscissa is 4 units and ordinate is -3 units.

The point is in the fourth quadrant. So it will look like as shown in the following figure.

(iii) Here for the given point the abscissa is -5 units and ordinate is -7 units.

The point is in the third quadrant. So it will look like as shown in the following figure.

(iv) Here for the given point the abscissa is 7 units and ordinate is -4 units.

The point is in the fourth quadrant. So it will look like as shown in the following figure.

(v) Here for the given point the abscissa is -3 units and ordinate is 2 units.

The point is in the second quadrant. So it will look like as shown in the following figure.

(vi) Here for the given point the abscissa is 7 units and ordinate is 0 units.

The point is on the x-axis. So it will look like as shown in the following figure.

(vii) Here for the given point the abscissa is -4 units and ordinate is 0 units.

The point is on the x-axis. So it will look like as shown in the following figure.

(viii) Here for the given point the abscissa is 0 units and ordinate is 7 units.

The point is on the y-axis. So it will look like as shown in the following figure.

(ix) Here for the given point the abscissa is 0 units and ordinate is -4 units.

The point is on the y-axis. So it will look like as shown in the following figure.

(x) Here for the given point the abscissa is 0 units and ordinate is 0 units.

The point is basically intersection of the coordinate axes. So it will look like as shown in the following figure.
