Solution
On observing the graph, we see that the point F is on X-axis, so its Y-coordinate will be zero.
Also, it is at a distance of 2 units from origin.
... The coordinates of F are (2, 0), similarly the coordinates of G are (4, 0).
H is at a distance of 5 units from Y-axis and 1 unit from X-axis.
... The coordinates of H are (5, 1).
D is at a distance of 6 units from Y-axis and 2 units from X-axis.
... The coordinates of D are (6, 2).
The point D and A are on Y-axis at distances of 2 units and 4 units respectively from the origin.
Hence, the coordinates of D and A are (0, 2) and (0, 4), respectively.
B is at a distance of 1 unit from Y-axis and 5 units from X-axis.
... The coordinates of B are (1, 5).
C is at a distance of 2 units from Y-axis and 6 units from X-axis.
... The coordinates of C are (2, 6).
E is at a distance of 3 units from Y-axis and X-axis both.
... The coordinates of E are (3, 3).

This graph shows a map of an island just off the coast of a continent. The point labelled B represents a major city on the coast. The distance between grid lines represents 1 km.
Point A represents a resort that is located 5 km East and 3 km North of Point B. The values 5 and 3 are the coordinates of Point A. The coordinates can be given as the ordered pair (5, 3), where 5 is the horizontal coordinate and 3 is the vertical coordinate.
