Question

Q4. Find the distance of the P(3, 4) from the origin
(a) 4
(b)-3
(C) 5
​

Answer 1

Answer:

hope it will help

Step-by-step explanation:

origin(o) = (0,0)

use the formula of distance and put the values

Option C) 5 is correct answer

Answer 2

Answer:

(a)Distance of point P from origin = OP, where O is the origin. From P draw line A perpendicular to x-axis. You can observe that OAP is a right angled triangle with OA = 4 units, AP = 3 units. Hence, the distance of point P from origin is 5 units

(b)From P draw line A perpendicular to x-axis. You can observe that OAP is a right angled triangle with OA = 4 units, AP = 3 units. Hence, the distance of point P from origin is 5 units.

(c)Therefore, the line joining the point and origin can be taken as hypotenuse of a right angled triangle of perpendicular length 3 units and base of 4 units. By Pythagoras theorem, Distance between origin and point = √(4^2 + 3^2) =√(16+9) = √25 = 5 units.
