Given :- M and N are the midpoints of parallelogram ABCD. AN and CM are joined & P and Q are the midpoints on AN and MC which are joined as PM and NQ respectively.
To prove :- PMQN is a parallelogram.
Construction :- Extend PM and joined it with D & NQ to B as shown in figure.
Proof :- ABCD is a parallelogram and M and N are the midpoints of AB and CD.
As ABCD I a parallelogram and M is the mid point of AB.
So, AM = MB = AB/2 .............(1)
Now, N is also a mid point of side CD of parallelogram ABCD.
So, DN = NC = DC/2 ..............(2)
As, ABCD is a parallelogram then all of it's sides are equal and parallel to each other.
Means,
AB = CD and AD = BC
AB ll CD and AD ll BC
As, AB = CD.
So, AM = NC [ from (1) and (2) ]
Now, we have AM ll NC and AB ll CD.
In quadrilateral ANCM we have,
AM ll NC and AM ll NC [ we proved that above ]
MB = DN and MB ll DN
As, DMBN is paparalleogram
So, AN ll MC and AM ll NC.
then, ½ AN ll ½ MC
mean, PN ll MQ ...........(3)
Also in DNBM parallelogram.
DN ll MB and DM ll NB.
So, PM ll NQ ..............(4)
Now, in quadrilateral PMNQ,
we have,
PN ll MQ [ from (3) ]
and PM ll NQ [ from (4) ]
So that's mean, PMNQ is also a parallelogram.
Hence, proved.
