Question

The perpendicular distance of the point P (3, 4) from the y-axis is


.​

Answer 1

Answer:

any point in the Cartesian plane has two coordinates so here we have point P (3,4),

so the x coordinate value is 3

and the. y. coordinate value is 4

the perpendicular distance of a point from y axis will be equal to the value of x coordinate.

similarly if the perpendicular distance from x axis is asked then value of y coordinate will be taken .

Step-by-step explanation:

x=3

y=4

so perpendicular distance from the y axis to the point P(3,4) is 3 units.
