lana [24]

Answer:

11 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of side PS can be calculated using the distance formula, d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}

Where,

P(-2, 5) = (x_1, y_1) (the coordinate of P is gotten from the graph)

S(9, 5) = (x_2, y_2) (given)

PS = \sqrt{(9 - (-2))^2 + (5 - 5)^2}

PS = \sqrt{(11)^2 + (0)^2}

PS = \sqrt{121} = 11 units
