Choose the point (a, b) = (1, -1)
A. (-b , -a) = (1, -1)
B. (–a, –b) = (-1, 1)
C. (b, –a) = (-1, -1)
D. (a, –b) = (1, 1)
E. (–b, a) = (1, 1)
Only choice A is equivalent to our assumed point, i.e, both their x and y coordinates have the same signs.
The answer is A.
A. (-b , -a) = (1, -1)
B. (–a, –b) = (-1, 1)
C. (b, –a) = (-1, -1)
D. (a, –b) = (1, 1)
E. (–b, a) = (1, 1)
Only choice A is equivalent to our assumed point, i.e, both their x and y coordinates have the same signs.
The answer is A.

Sir, will option A true for all co ordinates?
