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
