If a point R(4,y,z)R (4, y, z) lies on the line segment joining the points P(2,−3,4)P (2, -3, 4) and Q(8,0,10),Q (8, 0, 10), then the distance of RR from the origin is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
2142\sqrt {14}
Option C (2142\sqrt {14}) is correct because after finding the coordinates of point R using the section formula, its distance from the origin is 2142\sqrt{14}.
