In following figure, coordinates of P are

A

`(-4,2)`

B

`(-2,4)`

C

`(4,-2)`

D

`(2,-4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Here, given point P lies on II quadrant , so its abscissa will be negative and ordinate will be positive. Also, its perpendicular distance from X-axis is 4, so y-coordinate of P is 4 and its perpendicular distance from Y-axis is 2, so x-coordinate is -2. Hence, coordinate of P are (-2,4).
