Answer: The correct option is (2) (a, b).

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the co-ordinates of the point 'P' for the rectangle shown in the figure without using any new variable.

Since we are dealing with a rectangle, so each of its angle is a right angle. Hence, each side of the given rectangle is perpendicular to its adjacent side.

Also, the distance of a point from a line is the length of the perpendicular drawn from the point to the line.

So, we can see from the attached figure below that

Point 'P is at a distance of 'b' units from X-axis and 'a' units from Y-axis.

The distance of a point 'P' from Y-axis is its x co-ordinate the distance of 'P' from X-axis is its y co-ordinate.

Therefore, the co-ordinates of the point P will be

(distance of P from Y-axis, distance of P from X-axis)

= (a, b).

Thus, the correct option is (2) (a, b).
