Question
Plot point$ A(5, -7)$. From point $A$, draw $AM$ perpendicular to the $x-$axis and $AN$ perpendicular to the $y-$axis. Write the coordinates of points $M$ and $N.$

Answer

Given $A(5, -7)$

After plotting the given point $A(5,-7)$ on a graph paper.
​​​​​​​ Now let us draw a perpendicular $AM$ from the point $A(5,-7)$ on the $x-$axis and a perpendicular $AN$ from the point $A(5,-7)$ on the $y-$axis.
As from the graph clearly we get the co$-$ordinates of the points $M$ and 4
Co$-$ordinate of the point $M$ is $(5,0)$
Co$-$ordinate of the point $N$ is $(0,-7)$
