To prove: ST bisects PR, i.e., PT = TR.
Construction: Join SU where U is the midpoint of PR.

Proof:
Statement
Reason
1. SU ∥ QR and SU = 12QR.
1. By Midpoint Theorem.
2. ST ∥QR and SU ∥ QR.
2. Given and statement 1.
3. ST ∥ SU.
3. Two lines parallel to the same line are parallel themselves.
4. ST and SU are not the same line.
4. From statement 3.
5. T and U are coincident points.
5. From statement 4.
6. T is the midpoint of PR (Proved).
6. From statement 5.
