In the quadrilateral PQRS ,join P to R andQ to S then,
In triangle PQR,
PR<PQ+QR ........(1)
(because in a triangle the sum
of two sides is greater than
the third side)
similarly,
QS<RS+SP .........(2)
From 1st and 2nd. we have,
PR+QS<PQ+QR+RS+SP
Hence proved

Construct PM⊥QS and RN⊥QS
ar(ΔPSA)x ar(ΔQAR)
=ar(ΔSAR) x ar(ΔPAQ)
#hope it helps.
(refer to the attachment for the figure)
