Answer:

option A : about 2.8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance from P to RQ , Find the distance from ( 1 , 1) to (3 , 3).

 [tex]Distance = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}[/tex]

                 [tex]= \sqrt{(3-1)^2 + (3-1)^2}\\\\= \sqrt{2^2 + 2^2 }\\\\= \sqrt{4 + 4 }\\\\= \sqrt{8}\\\\=2\sqrt{2}[/tex]

                 = 2.83 units

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

The distance you want is the point P to the (3,3). Then two lines meet as these two do, the shortest distance is the right angle distance. And that is how distance is defined.

Formula

d = sqrt( (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2  )

Givens

x2 = 1

x1 = 3

y2 = 1

y1 = 3

Solution

d = sqrt( (1 - 3)^2 + (1  - 3)^2 )

d = sqrt( (-2)^2 + (-2)^2 )

d = sqrt ( 4 + 4)

d = sqrt(8)

d = 2√2

d = 2.8
