Question

what is the distance of the point 3, 4 from origin

Answer 1

5 is the answer after applying distance formula

Answer 2

Answer:

Distance between two points can be calculated by the formula:

$\sqrt{ ( x_2 - x_1 )^2 + ( y_2 - y_1 )^2$

According to the question,

x₁ = 0, x₂ = 3, y₁ = 0, y₂ = 4.

Substituting in the formula, we get,

$\implies \sqrt{ ( 3 - 0 )^2 + ( 4 - 0 )^2 } \\ \\ \\ \implies \sqrt{ 3^2 + 4^2} \\ \\ \implies \sqrt{ 9 + 16 } = \sqrt{ 25} = 5 \\ \\ \boxed{ \text{ Hence the distance between the two points is 5 units.}}$

Hope my answer helped !
