Question

the distance of point p (-4,-3) from the y axis is

Answer 1

The perpendicular distance of point p from y axis is 4 units.

Answer 2

Answer:

Distance of point P(4,3) from Y - axis will be 4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pt. is on y - axis so, its x co - ordinate will be 0. Also, we have to find distance between them. So, the distance between them will be perpendicular.

Therefore, co-ordinates of point A on y - axis A(0, 3)

dist($a^{2}$) =$(x2-x1)^{2}$+ $(y2-y1)^{2}$

= (4 - 0)^2 + (3 - 3)^2

= (4)^2 + 0

= 16 + 0

= 16

dist($a^{2}$) = 16

Therefore, d(A) = 4 units {Taking square root on both side}
