Solution

The correct option is B
AC

Perpendicular distance is measured along $90^{\circ}$ to the given line i.e. in this case it will be measured parallel to x-axis. The coordinate of the point is P (2,3) i.e. Along y = 3 because P lies on it. Therefore here the perpendicular distance is represented by AC
