Question

the distance of the point 6, -8 from the origin is​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between two points P(x1, y1) and Q(x2, y2) is given by:

1. d(P, Q) = square root of p(x2 − x1)2 + (y2 − y1)2 {Distance formula}
2. d=
3. $\sqrt{ {x}^{2} + {y}^{2} }$
4. from Origin
5. $d = \sqrt{{6}^{2} + ( { - 8}^{2} ) } \\ d = \sqrt{36 + 64} \\ d = \sqrt{100}a \\ d = 10$
