According to the distance formula inventor C is the value for the base A is the value for the height and B is the value for the hypotenuse side. The distance of a point A x y from the origin O 0 0 is given by OA sqrtx - 02 y - 02 ie OP Distance of a Point from the Origin We will discuss here how to find the distance of a point from the origin. This applet demonstrates the setup of the problem and the method we will use to derive a formula for the distance from the plane to the point P.

The distance of a point A x y from the origin O 0 0 is given by OA sqrtx - 02 y - 02 ie OP Distance of a Point from the Origin We will discuss here how to find the distance of a point from the origin.
