MCQ
The perpendicular distance of a point $P(3, 8)$ from $x-$axis is:
- A$5$ units
- B$11$ units
- ✓$8$ units
- D$3$ units
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
$8$ units
The distance of any point from $x-$axis is the $y-$coordinate of a given point,
Here, the value of $y-$coordinate is $8$
Hence, distance $= 8$ units
Here, the value of $y-$coordinate is $8$
Hence, distance $= 8$ units
