Question
In the following figure, coordinates of P are ______.
Options
(–4, 2)
(–2, 4)
(4, –2)
(2, –4)
Solution
In the following figure, coordinates of P are (–2, 4).
Explanation:
Here, given point P lies in II quadrant, so its abscissa will be negative and ordinate will be positive.
Also, its perpendicular distance from X-axis is 4, so y-coordinate of P is 4 and its perpendicular distance from Y-axis is 2, so x-coordinate is –2.
Hence, coordinates of P are (–2, 4).
