S(0,5)

उत्तर
According to the Rectangular Cartesian Co-ordinate system of representing a point (x, y),
If x > 0, y > 0 then the point lies in the 1st quadrant
If x < 0, y > 0 then the point lies in the 2nd quadrant
If x < 0, y < 0 then the point lies in the 3rd quadrant
If x > 0, y < 0 then the point lies in the 4th quadrant
But in case
if `x = 0, y != 0`then the point lies on the y-axis
if `y =0, x != 0` then the point lies on the x-axis
Here the point is given to be S (0, 5). Comparing this with the standard form of (x, y) we have
x = 0
y = 5
Here we see that `x = 0, y != 0`
Hence the given point lies on the y-axis

A tiling or tessellation of a flat surface is the covering of a plane using one or more geometric shapes, called tiles, with no overlaps and no gaps. Historically, tessellations were used in ancient Rome and in Islamic art. You may find tessellation patterns on floors, walls, paintings etc. Shown below is a tiled floor in the archaeological Museum of Seville, made using squares, triangles and hexagons.

A craftsman thought of making a floor pattern after being inspired by the above design. To ensure accuracy in his work, he made the pattern on the Cartesian plane. He used regular octagons, squares and triangles for his floor tessellation pattern
