In ∆RQP
By angle sum property
→ ∠R + ∠P + ∠Q = 180°
→ ∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 = 180°
Given that, ∠3 = 90°. So,
→ ∠1 + ∠2 + 90° = 180°
→ ∠1 + ∠2 = 90°.....(eq 1)
TS is a perpendicular drawn on line PR such that ∠TSP = ∠5 = 90°
Also, TP is perpendicular on line PQ such that ∠TPQ = 90°
→ ∠4 + ∠2 = 90°.....(eq 2)
On comparing (eq 1) and (eq 2) we get,
→ ∠1 + ∠2 = ∠4 + ∠2
→ ∠1 = ∠4
In ∆RQP and ∆TSP
→ ∠3 = ∠5 (each 90°)
→ ∠1 = ∠4 (from above)
By AA
∆RQP ~ ∆TSP
Therefore,
→ ST/PQ = PS/RQ
Cross -multiply them
→ ST.RQ = PS.PQ
Hence, proved

Concept used :-
→ AA Similarity Theorem :- If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar.
→ When two ∆'s are similar, the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal.
