उत्तर

\[\left( a \right) \sqrt{b^2 + c^2}\]

\[\text{ The projection of the point P }  \left( a, b, c \right) \text{ on the x - axis is } \left( a, 0, 0 \right) \text{ as both Y and Z coordinates on any point on the x - axis are equal to zero }  . \]

\[ \therefore \text{ Distance of P }  \left( a, b, c \right) \text{ from x - axis = Distance of P }  \left( a, b, c \right) \text{ from } \left( a, 0, 0 \right)\]

\[ = \sqrt{\left( a - a \right)^2 + \left( b - 0 \right)^2 + \left( c - 0 \right)^2}\]

\[ = \sqrt{b^2 + c^2}\]
