Q6 of 78 Page 944

The distance of the point P (6, – 6) from the origin is

Coordinates of Given Point (say P) = (6, – 6)


Coordinates of Origin (say O) = (0, 0)


By using distance formula i.e


Distance


Where, (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of points A and B respectively.


So, we have



⇒ OP =√(36 + 36)


⇒ OP =6√2 units
