Question

the distance of the point( 0,-3
) from the orgin is​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We know,

The distance between two points (a,b) and (c,d) is given by :

(c−a)

2

+(d−b)

2

Hence,

the distance between origin i.e,(0,0) and (2,−1)=

(2−0)

2

+(−1−0)

2

=

5

Similarly, the distance between (3,1) and (0,0)=

(3−0)

2

+(1−0)

2

=

10

The distance between (5,0) and (0,0) =

(5−0)

2

+(0−0)

2

=5

And the distance between (2,−3) and (0,0) =

(2−0)

2

+(−3−0)

2

=

13

Hence, the nearest point from the origin is (2,−1)

Thus, A is the correct answer.
