Find the distance from the origin to each of the point:
`(-4,-3,-2)`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
To find the distance from the origin to the point \((-4, -3, -2)\), we will use the distance formula in three-dimensional space. The distance \(d\) between two points \((x_1, y_1, z_1)\) and \((x_2, y_2, z_2)\) is given by: \[ d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2 + (z_2 - z_1)^2} \] ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Points**: - The origin is \((0, 0, 0)\). - The given point is \(P(-4, -3, -2)\). - Here, \((x_1, y_1, z_1) = (0, 0, 0)\) and \((x_2, y_2, z_2) = (-4, -3, -2)\). 2. **Substitute the Coordinates into the Distance Formula**: \[ d = \sqrt{((-4) - 0)^2 + ((-3) - 0)^2 + ((-2) - 0)^2} \] 3. **Calculate Each Component**: - Calculate \((-4 - 0)^2 = (-4)^2 = 16\) - Calculate \((-3 - 0)^2 = (-3)^2 = 9\) - Calculate \((-2 - 0)^2 = (-2)^2 = 4\) 4. **Add the Squares**: \[ d = \sqrt{16 + 9 + 4} \] \[ d = \sqrt{29} \] 5. **Final Result**: The distance from the origin to the point \((-4, -3, -2)\) is \(\sqrt{29}\) units.
