Question

Question 11:- 011 The distance between
the points (4, p) and (1, 0) is 5, then p is:
(a) o
(b) 4
(c) 1
(d) 2​

Answer 1

Answer:

2

p+0/2= 5

p=2.

therefore the distance between them is 2

Answer 2

Answer:

(b) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

let (4,p) = (x1,y1) and (1,0)= (x2, y2)

We know,

√(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2= 5

√(1-4)^2+(0-p)^2=5 [ putting the values ]

√(-3)^2+(-p)^2=5

√ 9+p^2 =5

9+p^2= 25 [ squaring both sides ]

p^2=25-9

p^2=16

p=√16

p=4
