Answer:

D. 22

Explanation:

Let O be the origin, then we can use the Pythagoras Theorem to obtain:


|AB|^2=|AO|^2+|OB|^2

This implies that;


|AB|^2=14^2+16^2


|AB|^2=196+256


|AB|^2=452

Take positive square root to get:


|AB|=√(452)


|AB|=√(113)


|AB|=21.26029163

We round to the nearest whole number to get


|AB|=21 units

The closes is 22
