Question

Find the distance of the point (-4.-1) from x-axis

Answer 1

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

first distance cant negative and when you are asked distance from x axis you ans will be value of y axis(positive) and vice versa

Answer 2

Please change the equation and you will get your answer :-

$\bf\large\underline\pink{Solution:-}$

Step by step Explanation :-

The shortest distance between the coordinate (2,-3) and the x- axis, is a straight line to the point (2,0).

Hence we need to get the distance between (2,-3) and (2,0)

Formula for calculating distance between 2 coordinates is:

√{(x₂-x₁)+(y₁-y₂)}

Distance between  (2,-3) and (2,0) therefore is:

√{(2-2)+(0-₋3)}

√(0²+3²)  = √(0+9)  = √9

= 3

Therefore the distance between (2,-3) from the x-axis is 3 units.
