Question

find the coordinates of the point
Whose abscissa is 2 and which lies on the - axis

Answer 1

(-2,0) ...............

Answer 2

Answer:

The co-ordinate of the point is $(2,0)$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Abscissa:-

• The x co-ordinate of any point is called the abscissa.
• The distance of a point from the y-axis scaled with the x-axis is called abscissa or x co-ordinate of the point.
• The co-ordinate of the y is 0 when any point lie on the x-axis.

Step 1 of 1

Given:-

The abscissa is 2 and lie on the x-axis.

To find:-

The co-ordinate of the point.

Since the abscissa is 2, i.e.,

The x co-ordinate is 2.

⇒ x = 2

Also,

The point lie on the x-axis, i.e.,

The co-ordinate of y is 0.

⇒ y = 0

Then,

The co-ordinates of the point is $(x,y)$.

⇒ (2, 0)

Thus, the required co-ordinate is $(2,0)$.
