(N/A) To locate the points in the Cartesian plane,we follow these steps:
$1$. Draw the $x$-axis and $y$-axis on a graph paper,intersecting at the origin $O(0, 0)$.
$2$. Choose a suitable scale,for example,$1 \text{ cm} = 1 \text{ unit}$.
$3$. For each point $(x, y)$,start from the origin $O$. Move $x$ units along the $x$-axis (right if $x > 0$,left if $x < 0$) and then move $y$ units parallel to the $y$-axis (up if $y > 0$,down if $y < 0$).
$4$. The positions of the given points are plotted as follows:
- $(5, 0)$: On the $x$-axis,$5$ units to the right of the origin.
- $(0, 5)$: On the $y$-axis,$5$ units above the origin.
- $(2, 5)$: $2$ units right and $5$ units up.
- $(5, 2)$: $5$ units right and $2$ units up.
- $(-3, 5)$: $3$ units left and $5$ units up.
- $(-3, -5)$: $3$ units left and $5$ units down.
- $(5, -3)$: $5$ units right and $3$ units down.
- $(6, 1)$: $6$ units right and $1$ unit up.
