Q.7. In which quadrant or on which axis each of the following points lie?
Answer: II, IV, x-axis, I, III
Q.8. Which of the following points lie on y-axis?
Answer: C, D, E, G
9.Plot the points (x, y) given by the following table. Use scale 1 cm = 0.25 units
X | 1.25 | 0.25 | 1.5 | -1.75 |
y | -0.5 | 1 | 1.5 | -0.25 |

Plot the Point
Answer: Let X’OX and Y’OY be the coordinate axes. Plot the given points and on the graph paper. After plotting, we get the points and .
