Proof:

∠QAP = ∠QCR. (Pair of alternate angles) ---------- (1)

AQ = QC. (∵ Q is the mid-point of side AC) ---------- (2)

∠AQP = ∠CQR (Vertically opposite angles) ---------- (3)

Thus, ΔAPQ ≅ ΔCRQ (ASA Congruence rule)

PQ = QR. (by CPCT). or PQ = 1/ 2 PR ---------- (4)

⇒ AP = CR (by CPCT) ........(5)

But, AP = BP. (∵ P is the mid-point of the side AB)

⇒ BP = CR

Also. BP || CR. (by construction)

In quadrilateral BCRP, BP = CR and BP || CR

Therefore, quadrilateral BCRP is a parallelogram.

BC || PR or, BC || PQ

Also, PR = BC (∵ BCRP is a parallelogram)

⇒ 1 /2 PR = 1/ 2 BC

⇒ PQ = 1/ 2 BC. [from (4)]
