Question

3) Find the point P, if the perpendicular distance of a point P from the x-axis is 5 units and the
negative direction of y-axis is 6 units.

Answer 1

Answer:

Here, foot of perpendicular lies on the negative direction of X-axis, so perpendicular distance can be meausre in II quadrant or III quadrant . Hence , the point P has y-coordinate =5 or -5.
