given that .q lies between p and r
draw a line pr
insert .q at middle
w.k.t pq+qr=line pqr
so pq is 1/2 pr

Q lies between two points P and R.t.p = QR =PQ + QR = PR =PQ PQ = PR =2pq = PR=PQ = 1/2 PR

Proof :
{ See the attachment for the figure }
Given that, the point Q lies between the two points P and R such that PQ = QR. This means that Q is the mid - point of the line PR.
Then, PQ + QR = PR
==> PQ + PQ = PR, since PQ = QR
==> 2 PQ = PR
==> PQ = PR, dividing both sides by 2
This proves the problem.
