Distance between T(80, 20) and U(20, 60) = sqrt((20 - 80)^2 + (60 - 20)^2) = sqrt((-60)^2 + (40)^2) = sqrt(3600 + 1600) = sqrt(5200) = 72.11 units

Distance between T(80, 20) and V(110, 85) = sqrt((110 - 80)^2 + (85 - 20)^2) = sqrt((30)^2 + (65)^2) = sqrt(900 + 4225) = sqrt(5125) = 71.59

Distance between U(20, 60) and V(110, 85) = sqrt((110 - 20)^2 + (85 - 60)^2) = sqrt((90)^2 + (25)^2) = sqrt(8100 + 625) = sqrt(8725) = 93.41

Therefore, shortest distance for the trip = 71.59 + 93.41 = 165 units.
