Solution
The maximum distance of a point on the graph of the function y = `sqrt(3)` sinx + cosx from x-axis is 2.
Explanation:
Given that y = `sqrt(3)` sinx + cosx .......(i)
∴ The maximum distance from a point on the graph of equation (i) from x-axis
= `sqrt((sqrt(3))^2 + (1)^2`
= `sqrt(3 + 1)`
= 2
