Question

Write coordinate of a point right of origin and on x-axis at a distance of $2$ units.

• A. $(0,2)$
• B. $(0,0)$
• C. $(2,0)$
• D. $(2,2)$

Answer 1

The correct option is C

$(2,0)$

Step 1: Determine the y-coordinate of a point:

Given that point lies on x-axis, thus the ordinate value will be $0$.

Step 2: Determine the x-coordinate of a point:

Given that the distance is $2$ units and the point lies on the right side of x-axis (the positive side of x-axis), the abscissa will be $2$.

Therefore the coordinates of the point will be $(2,0)$.

Hence, option C is correct.
