Question

What is the distance from the x-axis to the point 6, -8 and the distance from the y-axis​

Answer 1

Answer:

The distance between point (2,3) & x-axis can be determined by assuming a point (2,0) in x-axis.

Now distance between A & B is P=

[P=3 unit]

Hence distance between point A & x-axis is 3 unit.
