Question

distance of the point (5,4)on the xy plane from origin is

Answer 1

The distance of the point (5,4) on the XY plane from origin is √41 units

Given : The coordinates of the given point is (5,4)

To find : The distance of the point from the origin.

Solution :

We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process. (our goal is to calculate the distance between the point and the origin)

Now, the coordinates of the origin is (0,0)

So, we have to calculate the distance between points (0,0) and (5,4)

Now, we have to apply the following formula :

Distance between two points = √[(X2 - X1)² + (Y2-Y1)²]

Where,

• Coordinates of the first point = (X1,Y1)
• Coordinates of the second point = (X2,Y2)

In this case,

• (X1,Y1) = (0,0)
• (X2,Y2) = (5,4)

So, distance between them = √[(5-0)² + (4-0)²] = √(25+16) = √41 units

(This will be considered as the final result.)

Hence, the distance of the point (5,4) on the XY plane from origin is √41 units
