The distance between the points (0, 5) and (–5, 0) is(A) 5 (B) 5√2 (C) 2√5 (D) 10 |
Answer» (B) 5√2 Distance formula: d2 = (x2 – x1)2 + (y2 – y1)2 According to the question, We have; x1 = 0, x2 = – 5 y2 = 5, y2 = 0 d2 = (( – 5) – 0)2 + (0 – 5)2 d= √(-5-0)2+ (0-5)2 d= √((-5)2+ (-5)2) d = √(25 + 25) d= √50= 5√2 So the distance between (0, 5) and ( – 5, 0) = 5√ 2 |
