Point B has coordinates (5, 1) The x coordinate of point A is 0 . The distance between point A and Point B is 13 units. What are the possible coordinates of point A?

Let y represent the y-coordinate of point A.

We have been given that point B has coordinates (5,1) The x-coordinate of point A is 0. So coordinates of point A would be (0,y)

The distance between point A and Point B is 13 units.

We will use distance formula to solve our given problem.

Let point A and point A .

Upon substituting coordinates of both points in distance formula, we will get:

Let us square both sides as:

Upon splitting the middle term, we will get:

Now we will use zero product property.

Therefore, the possible coordinates of point A would be and .
