Solution
In the given graph the coordinates of point x are (3, 2).
Explanation:
The foot of the perpendicular drawn from the indicated point on X-axis is at a distance of 3 units from the origin.
The x-coordinate of the point is 3.
Again, the perpendicular drawn from the given point on Y-axis meets the Y-axis at a point which is at a distance of 2 units from origin.
The y-coordinate of the point is 2.
Hence, the coordinates of the point are (3, 2).
