MCQ
Assertion (A): A point with coordinates (-5, 2) lies below the x-axis.
Reason (R): A point with negative x-coordinate lies to the left of the y-axis and a point with negative y-coordinate lies below the x-axis.
  • A
    Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
  • B
    Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).
  • C
    Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.
  • D
    Assertion (A) is false but Reason (R) is true.

Answer

D : A point with coordinates (-5, 2) has positive y-coordinate and so it lies above the x-axis. Thus, A is false. But R is true.
