If the perpendicular distance of a point P from the x-axis is 5 units and the foot of the perpendicular lies on the negative direction of x-axis, then the point P hasA. x – coordinate = – 5B. y – coordinate = 5 onlyC. y – coordinate = – 5 onlyD. y – coordinate = 5 or –5 |
Answer» D. y – coordinate = 5 or –5 Explanation: Perpendicular distance from x-axis = Ordinate = 5 The negative direction of x-axis doesn’t decide the sign of the ordinate. (D) y-coordinate = 5 or -5. Hence, (D) is the correct option. |
