What is the magnitude of the position vector whose terminal point is (-5, 3)?

2sqrt17
4
5
6

Step-by-step explanation:

The magnitude of a vector is the length of the vector itself.

Given a bi-dimensional vector, the magnitude of the vector is given by:

where

is the x-component of the vector

is the y-component of the vector

The vector in this problem is

Therefore its components are

And so, the magnitude of the vector is:
