Step-by-step explanation:
In Δ PQR, D is the mid-point of QR.
PM is _______________
PD is ________________
Is QM = MR?

Answer:
Given: D is the midpoint of QR
So, QD = DR
PM is altitude.
PD is median.
No, QM ≠ MR as D is the mid-point of QR.
Question 2:
Draw rough sketches for the following:
(a) In Δ ABC, BE is a median.
(b)In Δ PQR, PQ and PR are altitudes of the triangle.
(c) In Δ XYZ, YL is an altitude in the exterior of the triangle.
Answer:
Here, BE is a median in Δ ABC and AE = EC.

(b) Here, PQ and PR are the altitudes of the Δ PQR and RP Ʇ QP.

(c) YL is an altitude in the exterior of Δ XYZ.

Question 3:
Verify by drawing a diagram if the median and altitude of a isosceles triangle can be same.
Answer:
Isosceles triangle means any two sides are same.
Take Δ ABC and draw the median when AB = AC.
AL is the median and altitude of the given triangle.
