The distance of the point `P(2,3)` from the `X`-axis is

A

`2`

B

`3`

C

`1`

D

`5`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

We know that , if (x,y) is any point on the cartesian plane in first quadrant. The , x =perpendicular distance from X-axis

Distance of the point P(2,3) from the X-axis = Ordinate of a point p(2,3).
