The distance of the point P(2,3) from the x-axis is 3 units.
* Distance of a point from the x-axis- y-coordinate of the given point.
Distance of a point from the y-axis- coordinate of the given point.
* In this case, we consider the equation of the x-axis to be y=0
* So here we need to find the distance between (2,0) and (2,3):
Distance = √{(2 - 2)²+ (0 - 3)²} = √9 =3
So the distance is 3 units.
