Solution
The point A is on the Y-axis at a distance of 7.5 units from the origin.
∴ The coordinates are (0, 7.5).
The point B is at a distance of 4 units from Y-axis and 5 units from X-axis.
∴ The coordinates of B are (4, 5).
The point C is at a distance of 7.5 units from Y-axis and 2.5 units from X-axis.
∴ The coordinates of C denotes (7.5, 2.5).
The point D lies on X-axis at a distance of 11 units from the origin.
∴ The coordinates of D are (11, 0).
The point E is at a distance of 14.5 units from Y-axis and 6.5 units from X-axis.
∴ The coordinates of E are (14.5, 6.5).
The point F is at a distance of 18 units from Y-axis and 9.5 units from X-axis.
∴ The coordinates of F are (18, 9.5).
