Answer:Given: In quadrilateral ABCD ,AD||BC and AP=1/3AC
To prove: DP=1/2BP
Proof:
since,AP=1/3AC
,AP/AC=1/3
Let AP=x and AC=3
w
Where x is an undefined number
ACP=AC - AP =3x-x=2x
Now , in quadrilateral ABCD
AD||BC
By Alternate angle theorem
angle PAD=angle PCB
angle PDA=angle PBC
By AA test of similarity
∆APD~∆CPB
therefore By the property of similar triangles
AP/PD=CP/PB
x/PD=2x/PB
PB/PD=2/1
PD/PB=1/2
Therefore PD=1/2PB
