Given : P is the mid point of AB
PQllBC
To prove : Q is the mid point.
Construction : From point Q draw BE ll AB .
Proof : QE ll AB. ( by construction)
PQ ll BC. ( given )
Thus, PBEQ is a parallelogram.
PB = QE. ...(I) ( opp. Sides of parallelogram )
In triangles APQ and QCE,
AP = QE. ( by eq I)
Angle 1= 2
Angle 3= 4. (corresponding angles)
So, triangle AQP is congruent to trainable QCE. ( by AAS)
And so by CPCT,
AQ = QC
Hence proved
