Question

The perpendicular distance of the point P(3,4) from the Y axis is​

Answer 1

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that, abscissa or the x-coordinate of a point is its perpendicular distance from the Y-axis. So, perpendicular distance of the point P(3, 4)from Y-axis = Abscissa = 3.

Answer 2

Answer:

3 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the point on Y axis be Q

Now coordinate of Q is (0,4)

Using Distance formula

QP=root under. (3-0)square +(4-4)square

=root under 9

=3 unit
