Question

The distance of the point P (3, - 4) from the origin is
(b) 5 units
(c)4 units
(a)7 units
(d) 3 units
​

Answer 1

Answer:

5 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

d=√(0-3)²-(0-(-4))²

d= √9+16

d=√25

d=5

Answer 2

Distance of a point from the origin = √x² + y²

= √ (3)² + (-4)²

= √ 9 + 16

= √25 = 5 units

Hence, option b) 5 units is the right answer.
