ABC is a triangle where three lines are drawn through the vertices A, B and C parallel to the sides BC, CA and AB respectively, forming PQR. Prove that BC = 1/2PR AC = 1/2 PQ AB = 1/2RQ |

Answer» ong>Step-by-step explanation: AQ∥CB and AC∥QB ∴AQBC is a parallelogram ∴BC=AQ (Opposite side of a parallelogram) ∵AR∥BC and AB∥RC ∴ARCB is a parallelogram ∴BC=AR (Opposite side of a parallelogram) Hence A is the midpoint of QR Similarly B and C are MIDPOINTS of PQ and PR respectively ∴AB= 2 1
PRBC= 2 1
QRCA= 2 1
PQ 2AB=PR2BC=QR2CA=PQ PR+QR+PQ=2(AB+BC+CA) Perimeter of △ PQR=2[Perimeter of △ABC] MARK me the brainliest |
