Detailed Solution

Given  x+12+x+2-22+x-22+x+2-52

Px,x+2 and A2,5, B-1,2 P lies on the line y =x+2

Since PA +PB is minimum and P lies on y =x +2 And both A, B lies on the same side of the line y=x+2

The image of P with respect to the line y=x+2  h-21=k-5-1=22;h-2=1;h=3

k-5=-1;k=4 Hence the image is 3,4

A'B is the minimum value of PA+PB Hence, A'B is 16+4=20 

Here α=20 It is even number, It has two prime factors 2,5

 Sum of the digits of α is 2.
