उत्तर

This statement is True.

Explanation:

The co-ordinates of points P, Q and R is 3, −5 and 6 respectively.

We know that 3 > −5

∴ d(P, Q) = 3 − (−5)

∴ d(P, Q) = 3 + 5

∴ d(P, Q) = 8

We know that 6 > −5

∴ d(Q, R) = 6 − (−5)

∴ d(Q, R) = 6 + 5 

∴ d(Q, R) = 11

We know that 6 > 3

∴ d(P, R) = 6 − 3 

∴ d(P, R) = 3

∴ d(R, P) + d(P, Q)

= 3 + 8

But d(Q, R) = 11

So, d(R, P) + d(P, Q) = d(Q, R)
