Question

If the distance between the points (8, p) and (4, 3) is 5 then value of p is 1 (a) 6 (b) 0 (c) both (a) and (b) (d) none of these

Answer 1

Answer:

anwer is 0 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

(distance)^2=(x2-x1)^2+ (y2-y1)

given ,

(x1,y1)=(8,4)

(x2,y2)=(p,3)

5^2=(4-8)^2 +(3-p)^2

25=16+9+p^2-6p

25=25+p^2-6p

p^2-6p=0

p(p-6)=0

p=0 and 6
