Question

Find the perpendicular distance of the point p (7,2) drawn by x axis

Answer 1

ans = 2
remember if we have to find the perpendicular distance from x - axis, it is always y - coordinate

remember if we have to find the perpendicular distance from y - axis, it is always x - coordinate

Answer 2

$perendicular \: distnce \\ = \sqrt{ {(7 - 7)}^{2} + {(2 - 0)}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{0 + 4} \\ = \sqrt{4} \\ = 2 \\ this \: is \: your \: answer$
