Question

The point $\left(3,4\right)$ is at a distance of

• A. $3$from both the axis.
• B. $4$from both the axis
• C. $4$from the $x$ axis and $3$ from y axis
• D. $3$from $x$ axis and $y$ axis

Answer 1

The correct option is C

$4$from the $x$ axis and $3$ from y axis

In coordinate geometry $x$ - coordinate is the distance from $y$ axis and $y$ coordinate is the distance from $x$axis.

Here , $3$is the coordinate of $x$axis , so the point has a distance of $3$ from $y$axis

and , $4$ is the coordinate of $y$axis , so the point has a distance of $4$from $x$axis.

Hence , Option C is the correct answer.
