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


anilvarmapusapati: 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 = \frac{1}{2} PR, dividing both sides by 2

This proves the problem.
