Solution

The correct options are
A X-coordinate
D Perpendicular distance from Y-axis
While we representing a point on cartesian plane, X-coordinate or Perpendicular distance from Y-axis will come first.

For example, in (3,4) 3 represents the X-coordinate of the point or its perpendicular distance from Y-axis.
