प्रश्न
Find the distance of a point P(x, y) from the origin.
उत्तर १
Using distance formula
`l(OP) = sqrt((x-0)^2 + (y - 0)^2)`
`l(OP) = sqrt(x^2 -y^2)`
उत्तर २
The given point is P(x, y).
The origin is O(0,0)
`PO = sqrt((x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2) = sqrt((x-0)^2 + (y-0)^2) = sqrt(x^2 + y^2)`
Thus, the distance of point P from the origin is PO = `sqrt(x^2 + y^2)` units

Ayush starts walking from his house to office. Instead of going to the office directly, he goes to a bank first, from there to his daughter’s school and then reaches the office. What is the extra distance travelled by Ayush in reaching his office? (Assume that all distances covered are in straight lines). If the house is situated at (2, 4), bank at (5, 8), school at (13, 14) and office at (13, 26) and coordinates are in km.
