Q1 of 40 Page 3

What is the coordinate of a point that lies on the y-axis and has a distance of 4 units from the origin?

The point lies in the y-axis.


The abscissa for a point which lies on y-axis = 0


So, the point is (0, y)


And the point is at a distance of 4 units from the origin. So, the final coordinates of the point are (0, 4).
