Locate the point P(-2, 3, -5)....

Locate the point P(-2, 3, -5).

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

To locate the point (-2, 3, 5) in space, we move
2 units from origin along the negative direction of
x-axis. Let this point be A(-2, 0, 0). From the
point A moves 3 units parallel to positive direction
of y-axis. Let this point be B(-2, 3, 0). Finally from
B moves 5 units along negative direction of z-axis.
This point be (-2, 3, -5).
