Write the axis on which the given point lies.

Question:

Write the axis on which the given point lies.
(i) (2, 0)
(ii) (0, –5)
(iii) (–4, 0)
(iv) (0, –1)

 

Solution:

(i) (2, 0)
The ordinate of the point (2, 0) is zero.
Hence, the (2, 0) lies on the x-axis.

(ii) (0, –5)
The abscissa of the point (0, –5) is zero.
Hence, the (0, –5) lies on the y-axis.

(iii) (–4, 0)
The ordinate of the point (–4, 0) is zero.
Hence, the (–4, 0) lies on the x-axis.

(iv) (0, –1)
The abscissa of the point (0, –1) is zero.
Hence, the (0, –1) lies on the y-axis.
