उत्तर
On the graph, draw axis XOX’ and YOY’
Draw a line l, x = 3 which is parallel to y-axis
And draw another line m, y = –5, which is parallel to x-axis
These two lines intersect each other at P.
Now draw the angle bisector p of angle P.
Since p is the angle bisector of P, any point on P is equidistant from l and m.
Therefore, this line p is equidistant from l and m.
