Q. Show the Isoquant touching axis?

Isoquants do not intersect: By definition isoquants such as indifference curves, can never cut each other. If they cut each other it will be a logical contradiction. 

Isoquants cannot touch either axis: If an isoquant touches any axis just like in Figure below, it would mean that output can be produced with the help of one factor. It is unrealistic since output can't be produced only by capital or labour alone.
