Given:
In ΔPQR,
QR is produced to S
The bisectors of ∠PQR & ∠PRS meet at a point T
To prove:
∠QTR = 1/2∠QPR
Solution:
Concept to be used: The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of two interior opposite angles of the triangle
Considering the exterior angle of ΔTQR, we have
∠TRS = ∠TQR + ∠QTR
⇒ ∠QTR = ∠TRS - ∠TQR ....... (i)
Considering the exterior angle of Δ PQR, we have
∠PRS = ∠PQR + ∠QPR
[∵ QT is the bisector of ∠PQR & TR is the bisector of ∠PRS (as shown in the fig)]
⇒ 2∠TRS = 2∠TQR + ∠QPR
⇒ ∠QPR = 2∠TRS - 2∠TQR
⇒ ∠QPR = 2[∠TRS - ∠TQR]
⇒ ∠TRS - ∠TQR = 1/2∠QPR ....... (ii)
Now, on comparing (i) & (ii), we get
∠QTR= 1/2∠QPR
Hence proved
