Question

The coordinates of a point, which lies on $y$-axis and is at a distance of $4$ units above $x$-axis is ____.

• A. $(0,4)$
• B. $(4,4)$
• C. $(4,0)$
• D. $(0,-4)$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $(0,4)$

Let the required point be $P$.

Given, the point lies on $y$-axis.

Then, its abscissa is $0$ or $x=0$.

Also, given the point is at a distance of $4$ units above the $x$-axis,

So, its ordinate will be $+4$.
Hence, the co-ordinates of the required point are $(0,4)$.

Therefore, option $A$ is correct.
