Download Solution PDFFind the value of C, if the distance between the point (C, 4) and the origin is 5 units.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe distance between two points A (x1, y1) and B (x2, y2) is:
AB = √((x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2)
we know that coordinates of the origin are (0, 0)
(x1, y1) is (C, 4) and (x2, y2) is (0, 0)
⇒ √(C - 0)2 + (4 - 0)2 = 5
⇒ (C - 0)2 + (4)2 = 52
⇒ C2 + 16 = 25
⇒ C2 = 9
⇒ C = -3 or 3
