Interactive practice questions

The point on the graph has coordinates $\left(15,8\right)$(15,8).

A Coordinate Plane with x-axis labeled $-30$−30, $-15$−15, $15$15 and $30$30, and y-axis labeled $-16$−16, $-8$−8, $8$8 and $16$16. A point with coordinates $\left(15,8\right)$(15,8) is plotted with a solid black point. A line connects this point to the origin in the Coordinate Plane. The angle between this line and the positive axis is labeled $\theta$θ indicating its unknown measure.

a

Find $r$r, the distance from the point to the origin.

b
