Answer: PQ = 25.7 cm

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of the segment addition postulate.

The Segment Addition Postulate states that given 2 points A and C, a third point B lies on the line segment AC if and only if the distances between the points satisfy the equation AB + BC = AC.

Solve:

Given information

PR = 38.3 cm

QR = 12.6 cm

Given expression deducted from the segment addition postulate

PQ = PR - QR

Substitute values into the expression

PQ = (38.3) - (12.6)

Simplify by subtraction

PQ =
\boxed{25.7cm}

Hope this helps!! :)
