which point is further from the origin p(8,1) q(6,4)
\n" ); document.write( "
The origin is (0,0)

\n" ); document.write( "The distance formula is $\"d=sqrt%28%28x2-x1%29%5E2%2B%28y2-y1%29%5E2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "for p:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"d=sqrt%28%288-0%29%5E2%2B%281-0%29%5E2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"d=sqrt%2864%2B1%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"d=sqrt%2865%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "for q:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"d=sqrt%28%286-0%29%5E2%2B%284-0%29%5E2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"d=sqrt%2836%2B16%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"d=sqrt%2852%29\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
p is further away from the origin than q.
