Draw the line between the origin and the point in each answer choice and use the technique described above to see which has the longest hypotenuse. Choice (A) would look like this:This creates a triangle with legs of 1.5 and 1.5; the hypotenuse (the distance from the origin) would then be 1.52+1.52​, or about 2.12. Do the same with (B), (C), and (D). The distance of (B) would be 2​, or about 1.4. Choices (C) and (D) lie in a straight line left and up from the origin, respectively, so the distance of (C) is 0.5, and the distance of (D) is 1 . The distance farthest from the origin is about 2.12, which is (A).
