Given the coordinates (3,−2) ,

1 answer

the distance formula can be used to find the distance from the point (3,-2) to the origin (0,0).

The distance formula is:
√((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)

Plugging in the coordinates:
√((0 - 3)^2 + (0 - (-2))^2)
= √(3^2 + 2^2)
= √(9 + 4)
= √13

Therefore, the distance from the point (3,-2) to the origin is √13 units.
