Find the distance between the origin and the point:
(8, −15)
Advertisements
उत्तर
Coordinates of origin are O (0, 0).
C (8, −15)
CO = `sqrt((0 - 8)^2 + (0 + 15)^2)`
= `sqrt(64 + 225)`
= `sqrt(289)`
= 17

In a GPS, The lines that run east-west are known as lines of latitude, and the lines running north-south are known as lines of longitude. The latitude and the longitude of a place are its coordinates and the distance formula is used to find the distance between two places. The distance between two parallel lines is approximately 150 km.
