Question

In the adjacent figure ABCD is a parallelogram P and Q
are the midpoints of sides AB and DC respectively. Show
that PBCQ is also a parallelogram.
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since AB∥CD [ Opposite sides of ∥

gm

are parallel ]

⇒PB∥QC [ Parts of parallel lines are parallel ]

Also, AB=CD [ Opposite sides of ∥

gm

are equal ]

⇒

1

AB=

2

1

CD

⇒PB=QC [ P is the mid point of Ab and Q is the mid point of DC ]

Since PB∥QC and PB=QC

One pair of opposite sides of PBCQ are equal and parallel.

∴PBCQ is a ∥

gm

.

Hence, the answer is solved.

Answer 2

Answer:

yes it is also parallelogram

Step-by-step explanation:

given Q and P are the mid point

therefore if we stretch a line from Q to P

it parallel to cB

as Ad is parallel to CB

and we know AB is parallel to CD

so pB is parallel to qc

so PBCQ Is also a parallelogram
