Question

he distance of the point ( 5 , - 2 ) from x-axis is : (1 Point) 5 Units - 2 Units 2 Units - 5 Units​

Answer 1

Answer:

Correct option is

A

(2,0) and (8,0)

Let the point on x.axis be (k,0)

Now using distance formula we have

Using distance formula we have

(k−5)

2

+(0+4)

2

=5

(k−5)

2

+16

=5

squaring both sides,we have

(k−5)

2

+16=25

(k−5)

2

=9

∴k=8,2

Point is (2,0),(8,0)
