Question

the x coordinate of a point P on x axis is 4 and the y coordinate of a point q on y axis is 3 find the distance of PQ

Answer 1

Answer:

point p lies on x axis then it y coordinate is0

point q lies on y axis then its x coordinate is0

then its from a rectangle

d(pq)2 =(3)2+(4)2

=9+16

=25

taking square root on both side

d(pq) =5
