Answer:
2.59 m
Explanation:
Coordinates of origin = (0, 0)
Coordinates of Point p where the fly reach = (2.3 m, 1.2 m)
Use the distance formula of coordinates to find the distance between the origin and the point P.
[tex]d=\sqrt{\left ( x_{2}-x_{1} \right )^{2}+\left ( y_{2}-y_{1} \right )^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{\left ( 2.3- 0 \right )^{2}+\left ( 1.2-0 \right )^{2}}[/tex]
d = 2.59 m
Thus, the distance between the origin and the point P is 2.59 m.
