Answer:

(0, -10a)

Explanation:

From the picture attached,

Coordinates of a point have been given as (-10a, 0)

x-coordinate → distance of the point from the origin on x-axis

y-coordinate → distance of the point from the origin on y-axis

Therefore, distance of the given point on x-axis = -10a [(-) sign denotes the negative side of the x-axis]

Distance of the other point with unknown coordinates (x, y) (on y-axis) from the origin = y

And y = 10a

Therefore, coordinates of the unknown point will be (0, -10a).

[Here (-) sign denotes the negative side of the y-axis]
