Given : points on y axis are at distance of 5 units from the origin.
To Find : the coordinates of points
How many such points are there
Solution:
points on y axis
x coordinate are are zero
Let say y coordinate is a
Hence point is ( 0 , a)
Using distance formula
Distance from origin is 5
5 = √(0 - 0)² + (a - 0)²
=> 5 = √0 + a²
=> 5 = √a²
=> 5 = | a |
=> a = ± 5
Hence two such point exist
( 0 , 5) and ( 0 , - 5)
