Answer» Answer: Given A △ABC in which P is the mid-point of BC, Q is the mid-point of BC, Q is the mid-point of AP, such that BQ produced MEETS AC at R To PROVE RA= 3 1
CA Construction Draw PS||BR, meeting AC at S. Proof In △BCR, P is the mid-point of BC and PS||BR. ∴ S is the mid−point of CR. ⇒ CS=SR In △APS, Q is the mid-point of AP and QR||PS. ∴ R is the mid−point of AS ⇒ AR=RS From (i) and (ii), we get AR=RS=SC ⇒ AC=AR+RS+SC=3AR ⇒ AR= 3 1
AC= 3 1
