• 3 units

• − 3 units

• 4 units

• 5 units

Answer 1

The distance of point (−3, 4) from the origin is 5 units.

Explanation:

To find the distance of the point (−3, 4) from the origin (0, 0), we use the distance formula:

`"Distance" = sqrt((x_2 − x_1)^2 + (y_2 − y_1)^2)`

`"Distance" = sqrt((−3 − 0)^2 + (4 − 0)^2)`

Distance = `sqrt(9 + 16)`

Distance = 25

Distance = 5
