Question

If a point 0 lies between two points p and r such that po= or, then prove that po= 1/2 pr

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$\because$ Point O lies between two points P and R and:

PO = OR..... (Given)...... (1)

$\therefore$ O is the mid-point or PR.

$\therefore PO + OR = PR..... (2)$

From equations (1) & (2)

$\implies PO + PO = PR\\</p><p>\implies 2PO = PR\\</p><p>PO = \frac{1 }{2}PR$

Thus Proved.
