Answer 2

Distance of point whose coordinates are(a,b) from y axis is a units.

This can be explained as:-

The shortest distance between two points is the straight line between them. And the point is (a,b) where it's distance from y-axis can be measured by the distance of the point with respect to y-axis which can be given by a. The distance between the point from y-axis can be given by x-axis so, the answer remains a.
