DC respectively of parallelogram ABCD
Prove that gets DL and BM trise
Answers
(-1) to the power odd is -1
-1 to the power even is 1
(-1) to the power 13 is -1 as 13 is odd..

- L and M are the midpoints of sides AB and DC respectively.
- ABCD is a parallelogram.
ᴛᴏ ᴘʀᴏᴠᴇ -
DL and BM trisect diagonal AC.
ᴘʀᴏᴏғ -
Since,
ABCD is a parallelogram.
∴ AB || DC [opposite sides of parallelogram are parallel and equal]
∴ AB/2 = DC/2
=> LB = DM.
∴ LBMD is a parallelogram [opposite sides of parallelogram are equal]
∴ LB || DM [opposite sides of parallelogram are parallel]
Now,
L is the midpoint of AB.
∴ In ∆ ABQ,
P bisects AQ.
∴ AP = PQ [Converse mid point theorem]
Similarly,
In ∆ DCP,
M is the midpoint of DC.
∴ Q bisects PC.
∴ PQ = QC [Converse mid point theorem]
so,
∴ AP = PQ = QC.
∴ DL and BM trisects diagonal AC.
