Point lies
(A) on the negative direction of the x-axis
(B) on the negative direction of the y-axis
(C) in the third quadrant
(D) in the fourth quadrant
Answer: [A] on the negative direction of the x-axis
Solution.
Here the x-coordinate and y-coordinate is and 0 respectively.
We know that coordinates on the negative direction of the x-axis is in the form
And the coordinates on the negative direction of the y-axis is in the form
Hence point lies on the negative direction of the x-axis.
Therefore option (A) is correct
