Answer:

Point N(3,0) is equidistant from A and B.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to check whether the point is equidistant from A and B, it is required to measure the distance of A and B from each point. The formula for distance is:

d= √((x_2-x_(1))^2+(y_2-y_(1))^2 )

For J

AJ= √((-4-0)^2+(-5+4)^2 )

=√((-4)^2+(-1)^2 )

= √(16+1)

= √17  units

BJ=√((-4+2)^2+(-5-0)^2 )

=√((-2)^2+(-5)^2 )

= √(4+25)

= √29  units

Point J is not equidistant from A and B.

For K

AK= √((-3-0)^2+(0+4)^2 )

=√((-3)^2+(4)^2 )

= √(9+16)

= √25  units

=5

BK=√((-3+2)^2+(0-0)^2 )

=√((-1)^2+(0)^2 )

= √(1+0)

= √1  

=1 unit

Point K is not equidistant from A and B.

For M

AM= √((0-0)^2+(0+4)^2 )

=√((0)^2+(4)^2 )

= √(0+16)

= √16

=4 units  

BM=√((0+2)^2+(0-0)^2 )

=√((2)^2+(0)^2 )

= √(4+0)

= √4  

=2 units

Point M is not equidistant from A and B.

For N

AN= √((3-0)^2+(0+4)^2 )

=√((3)^2+(4)^2 )

= √(9+16)

= √25

=5 units

BN=√((3+2)^2+(0-0)^2 )

=√((5)^2+(0)^2 )

= √(25+0)

= √25  

=5 units

As point N's distance is equal from A and B, Point N is equidistant from A and B.
