Answer :
Coordintes of required point - (0, 5).
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Point on y-axis (-2,5).
To Find :
The coordinates.
Solution :
A - (-2, 5)
So,
The required point is in y-axis, It's x - coordinate should be zero (0).
★ Consider the -
Firstly we have to find coordinates of the point 'B' and distance AB is small.
So,
Finding the point AB :
∴ Coordintes of required point - (0, 5).
