Question
Taking 0.5 cm as 1 unit, plot the following points on the graph paper:
A(1, 3), B(– 3, – 1), C(1, – 4), D(– 2, 3), E(0, – 8), F(1, 0)

Solution
Here, in point A(1, 3) both x and y-coordinates are positive, so it lies in I quadrant.
In point B(– 3, – 1), both x and y-coordinates are negative, so it lies in III quadrant.
In point C(1, – 4), x-coordinate is positive and y-coordinate is negative, so it lies in IV quadrant.
In point D(– 2, 3), x-coordinate is negative and y-coordinate is positive, so it lies in II quadrant.
In point E(0, – 8) x-coordinate is zero, so it lies on y-axis and in point F(1, 0) y-coordinate is zero, so it lies on x-axis.
