Question

The perpendicular distance of a point P(5, 8) from the Y-axis is​please say solution very urgent

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey! The answer is 5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that, coordinates of any point represent the perpendicular distance from the axes.

In a plane, x-coordinate(abscissa) represents perpendicular distance from y-axis and y-coordinate(ordinate) represents perpendicular distance from x-axis.

Given point is (5,8) and its x-coordinate(abscissa) is 5.

Therefore, perpendicular distance of point P(5,8) from y-axis is 5 units.

Answer 2

Answer:

If the perpendicular distance of a point P from the X-axis is 5 units and the foot of the perpendicular lies on the negative direction of X-axis then the point P has
