Distance between P(0,16) & Q(-10,-8)
\(=\sqrt{(0+10)^2 + (16+8)^2} = 26\)


IMO E

Question needs some modification.
Distance between P(0,-16) & Q(-10,8)
\(=\sqrt{(0+10)^2 + (-16-8)^2} = 26\)


IMO E


The question is correct. It asks the distance between P, which is NOT at (0, -16) and (-10, -8).

Solution


Given:
    A circle with center at (0, 0)
    One end-point of the diameter on y-axis as (0, - 16)

To find:
    The distance between point P and the point (–10, –8)

Approach and Working Out:
    Since, P is the other end point of the diameter on y-axis
      The coordinates of point P are (0, 16)

    Therefore, the distance between (0, 16) and (-10, -8) = \(√((0 – (-10))^2+ (16 – (-8))^2 ) = √(100 + 576)= √676= 26\)

Hence, the correct answer is Option E.

Answer: E
