Solution

The correct option is B
P(5, 4)

The perpendicular distance of the point from the Y-axis measured along the positive X-axis is called the abscissa of the point.

The perpendicular distance of the point from the X-axis measured along the positive Y-axis is ordinate of the point.

The point is P (5,4).
