Find the coordinates of a point on the x - axis which is at a distance of 5 units from (4, -5). Find the coordinates on the y-axis

Answer»

The point on x-axis which is at a distance of 5 units from (4,-5) is (4, 0).

(x – 4)2 + 52 = 25,

∴ x = 4

Point on x axis is (4, 0)

Point on y axis is (0, y).

(0 – 4)2 + (y + 5)2 = 25,

∴ y = –8, –2

The point on y -axis which is at a distance of 5 units from (4, –5) are (0, –2), (0, –8)
