In llgm ABCD,two points PandQ are taken on diagonal BD such that DP=BQ
Show that
a]triangle APD congruent totriangle CQB
b]AP=CQ
c]triangle AQB congruent to triangle CPD
d]AQ=CP
e]APCQ is a llgm
We have-
1> In triangle APD and CQB
AD = CB
angle ADP = angle CBQ (alternate interior angles)
PD = QB (given)
2> So by corresponding part of congruent triangle-
AP = CQ
3> In triangle AQB and CPD
AB = CD
angle ABQ = angle CDP (alternate interior angles)
PD = QB (given)
4> So by corresponding part of congruent triangle-
AQ = CP.
5> Since AP = CQ and AQ = CP
So opposite sides are equal hence APCQ is a ||gm.
