 AD = BC (opposite sides of parallelogram ABCD) 
therefore , 1/3 AD = 1/3 BC (both sides of the equation are divided by 3) 
so, AP = CQ (substitution) - 1 
also , AP is parallel to CQ because AD is parallel to BC and A-P-D , B-Q-C (that is they are in a straight line) - 2 
so by 1 and 2 , AQCP is a parallelogram (a pair of opposite sides test)
