No, your answer is not correct.
We can utilize the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of PQ.
First, find the length of PR.
PR² = PQ² + QR²
PR² = 6² + 8² = 100
PR = √100 = 10
Now, find the length of QR.
QR = PQ² - PR²
QR = 11² - 10² = 21
Conclusively, find the length of PQ.
PQ² = PR² + QR²
PQ² = 10² + 21² = 541
PQ ≈ √541 ≈ 23.3
Consequently, the length of PQ is approximately 23.3 units. Rounded to the most proximate tenth, this is 23.3.
