Explanation:

Step1: Recall the property of parallelogram diagonals

In a parallelogram, the diagonals bisect each other. That is, if \(SU\) and \(TV\) are the diagonals of parallelogram \(STUV\) intersecting at \(R\), then \(SR=\frac{1}{2}SU\).

Step2: Substitute the given value of \(SU\)

Given \(SU = 11\) inches. Using the formula \(SR=\frac{1}{2}SU\), we substitute \(SU\) with \(11\). So \(SR=\frac{1}{2}\times11\).

Step3: Calculate the value of \(SR\)

\(SR=\frac{11}{2}= 5.5\) inches.

Answer:

\(5.5\)
