Answer:

3.24 km

Explanation:

Because the two triangles are similar, we can set the sides of as a proportion:


(TR)/(QR) = (ST)/(PQ)

Now, let's plug in the side lengths:


(1.25)/(2.25) = (1.80)/(PQ)

Lastly, Solve for PQ.


(1.25)/(2.25) = (1.80)/(PQ)\\\\1.80*2.25 = 1.25*PQ\\\\4.05 = 1.25*PQ\\\\(4.05)/(1.25) = PQ\\\\3.24 = PQ
