Question

Are the points (5, 7) and (7, 5) equal ?

Answer 1

No, the given points (5, 7) and (7, 5) are not equal. 

Why because, the above two points represent two different points in the coordinate plane. 

So they are not equal.

For (x₁, y₁) = (x₂, y₁) then x₁ must be equal to x₂ and y₁ must be equal to y₂. 

So to become (5, 7) = (7, 5) 5 should be equal to 7, which is impossible. 

So (5, 7) will not be equal to (7, 5).
