Question

The distance of co ordinate P(5 2) from y axis is

A) 4 units

B) 2 units

C) 5 units

D) 7 units​

Answer 1

Answer:

C) 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The perpendicular distance of the point A(x,y) from the y-axis is given by the x-coordinate. In point p(5,2) x-coordinate is 5. So, the perpendicular distance of the point p(5,2) from the y axis is 5 unit. Therefore, the distance is 5 units
