To locate: the point
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Given number line
Calculation:
If in a right triangle, the base=height=1 unit, then the hypotenuse is
So, consider one unit from the origin along the positive direction of the
Consider the distance to be radius of a circle, which intersects the
Thus, the point of intersection of the circle with the
Similarly, 2 units from the origin along the
So by drawing a circle using this distance as the radius, it intersects the
Thus,
