Question
Which of the following coordinate pairs is farthest from the origin?
Which of the following coordinate pairs is farthest from the origin?
Answer
Using the distance formula, calculate the distance from each of these points to the origin, (0, 0). While each answer choice has coordinates that add up to seven, (-1, 8) is the coordinate pair that produces the largest distance, namely 
, or approximately 8.06.
