The distance between origin and the point of intersection of lines x + y – 5 = 0 and x – y + 1 = 0, is:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Adding the two equations: 2x−4=02x - 4 = 0, so x=2x = 2 and then y=3y = 3. The intersection point is (2,3)(2,3).

Distance from origin =22+32=13= \sqrt{2^2 + 3^2} = \sqrt{13}.
