Answer
The distance from the origin to point P = 10 units
Step-by-step explanation
The distance between two points with the coordinates (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given as
d = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]
Noting tha the origin is (0, 0), for this question,
(x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is (-8, 6) and (0, 0) respectively
d = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]
d = √[(0 - -8)² + (0 - 6)²]
d = √[8² + (-6)²]
d = √(64 + 36)
d = √100
d = 10 units
Hope this Helps!!!
