Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the distance between the two points
(x1,y1)
and
(x2,y2 is d≈√(x2-x1)2+(y2−y1)2
Since, the origin has the coordinates
(0,0)
, thus
The given points are
(0,0)
and
(−8,15)
and therefore,
d=√(x2−x1)2+(y2−y1)2=√(-8−0)2+(15−0)2
=√(−8)2+15^2=√64+225=√289=√17^2=17
Hence, the distance is 17 units.
