The question is incomplete, but I will calculate the lengths of the sides of triangle PQR.

  1. Calculate the length of side PQ using the distance formula d=(x2−x1)2+(y2−y1)2d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2}.

    Given P(3,2)(3,2) and Q(−1,1)(-1,1):

    PQ=(−1−3)2+(1−2)2PQ = \sqrt{(-1-3)^2 + (1-2)^2} PQ=(−4)2+(−1)2PQ = \sqrt{(-4)^2 + (-1)^2} PQ=16+1PQ = \sqrt{16 + 1} PQ=17PQ = \sqrt{17}
  2. Calculate the length of side QR.

    Given Q(−1,1)(-1,1) and R(−3,−1)(-3,-1):

    QR=(−3−(−1))2+(−1−1)2QR = \sqrt{(-3-(-1))^2 + (-1-1)^2} QR=(−3+1)2+(−2)2QR = \sqrt{(-3+1)^2 + (-2)^2} QR=(−2)2+(−2)2QR = \sqrt{(-2)^2 + (-2)^2} QR=4+4QR = \sqrt{4 + 4} QR=8QR = \sqrt{8} QR=22QR = 2\sqrt{2}
  3. Calculate the length of side RP.

    Given R(−3,−1)(-3,-1) and P(3,2)(3,2):

    RP=(3−(−3))2+(2−(−1))2RP = \sqrt{(3-(-3))^2 + (2-(-1))^2} RP=(3+3)2+(2+1)2RP = \sqrt{(3+3)^2 + (2+1)^2} RP=62+32RP = \sqrt{6^2 + 3^2} RP=36+9RP = \sqrt{36 + 9} RP=45RP = \sqrt{45} RP=35RP = 3\sqrt{5}

    The lengths of the sides are:
    PQ=17PQ = \boxed{\sqrt{17}}
    QR=22QR = \boxed{2\sqrt{2}}
    RP=35RP = \boxed{3\sqrt{5}}
