Question

The distance of a point $(2,-1)$ from x-axis is

• A. $1$ units
• B. $2$ units
• C. $7$ units
• D. none of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A $1$ units

In $(a,b),|b|$ represents distance of point from x axis.

So in $(2,-1)$, |-1| represents the distance of a point from x- axis.

So, 1 unit is a correct answer.

So option A is correct.
