ΔPQR is an isosceles triangle. [∵ PQ = PR]
⇒ 12 PQ = 12 PR
⇒ NQ = MR and PN = PM
(i) In ΔNQR and ΔMRQ
NQ = MR (Half of equal sides)
∠NQR = ∠MRQ (Angles opposite to equal sides)
QR = RQ (Common)
ΔNQR = ΔMRQ (By SAS rule)
(ii) QM = RN (Congruent parts of congruent triangles)
(iii) In ΔPMQ and ΔPNR
PN = PM (Half of equal sides)
PR = PQ (Given)
∠P = ∠P (Common)
ΔPMQ = ΔPNR (By SAS rule)
