Question

What is an expression for the distance between the origin and a point P(x,y)

Answer 1

Answer:

$d = \sqrt{ {x}^{2} + {y}^{2} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between origin (0, 0) and point (x, y) is given as:

$d = \sqrt{ {(x - 0)}^{2} + {(y - 0)}^{2} } \\ \\ \red{ \bold{ d = \sqrt{ {x}^{2} + {y}^{2} } }}$
