Question

3) Find the distance of point (- 6, 8) from
the origin​

Answer 1

Answer:

10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between 2 points (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) = √[(x₁-x2)²+(y₁-y₂)²]

therefore distance between (-6,8) and (0,0)

 = √[(-6-0)²+(8-0)²]

 = √[(-6)²+(8)²]

= √(36+64)

= √100

= 10units
