Here let BD cut AC at O.
now, OC = 1/2
AC (diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other) ----- (1)
and CD = 1/4 AC ----- (2)
From (1) and (2) we get
CD = 1/2 OC
in ΔDCO, and Q are midpoints of DC and OC respectively
∴PQ ║DO ( midpoint theorem)
Also in ΔCOB Q is the midpoint of OC and PQ║AB
∴R is the midpoint of BC (converse of midpoint theorem)
