The point Q(p, p) lies in the third quadrant and is 4 units from the -axis.
Find the coordinates of Q.

Class 9The Cartesian PlaneCoordinate Geometry
  • A(-4, -4)
  • B(4, 4)
  • C(-4, 4)
  • D(4, -4)

Step-by-Step Solution

Distance from the -axis is || = 4. In the third quadrant both coordinates are negative, so , giving Q(-4, -4).
Answer: A) (-4, -4)
