Question

the distance of the point p(6,-8​

Answer 1

distance from X-axis is 6 and distance from Y-axis is -8

Answer 2

Below is given the distance formula to calculate the distance between the two coordinates at different locations in a graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula is ,

                    ⇒ distance = $\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1}) ^{2}+ (y_{2}-y_{1})^{2 } }$        

It is the root under the summation of square of difference of  $x_{2}$ and  $x_{1}$ and the square of  difference of  $y_{2}$ and  $y_{1}$.

Above equation can be derived by the graph and using pythagoras theorem
