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.
