PQ is parallel to RS. PR and QS are perpendicular to PQ and RS.
2 answers:
When two lines are parallel, the perpendicular distance between them is the same all through the way and the angles formed between the parallel lines and the perpendicular ones joining them is equal to 90 degree.
Example of this is the square or the rectangle as shown below:
AB || BC and both AD and BC are perpendicular on the two lines.
Accordingly, the two perpendicular lines are equal
Based on this, the ratio of PR and QS is 1:1

Answer:
Option (C)
Step-by-step explanation:
Coordinates of the point representing the location of Miya → (1, 10)
Coordinates of the point representing the location of Drea → (13, 1)
Coordinates of the point representing the location of Francine → (16, 1)
Coordinates of the point representing the location of Beach → (19, 4)
Distance between Miya and Drea =
=
=
= 15 miles
Distance between Drea and Francine =
= 3 miles
Distance between Francine and Beach =
=
≈ 4.2 miles
Total distance between Miya and the beach = 15 + 3 + 4.2
= 22.2 miles
Option (C) is the answer.
