    Answer:

    10.63cm

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The formula for calculating the distance between two coordinate is expressed as;

    D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

    Given the coordinates (3, -1) and (-5, 6)

    D = √(-5-3)²+(6-(-1))²

    D = √(-5-3)²+(6+1)²

    D = √(-8)²+(7)²

    D = √64+49

    D = √113

    D = 10.63cm

    Hence the shortest distance between P and Q is 10.63cm
