The expression is correct DP^2=3EP^2

Step-by-step explanation:

SINCE, the DEF is an equilateral triangle

DE = EF = DF  .......eq(1)

NOW,

    ∵ The DP is perpendicular to EF.

    => The DP is bisecting the side EF.

∴ EP=PF

NOW,

        In ΔDEF we have ,

      =>    DP^2+EP^2=DE^2   (By pyhtagouros theorom)

      =>   DP^2+EP^2=EF^2    ( By using eq(1) )

      => DP^2+EP^2=(2EP)^2

           DP^2+EP^2=4EP^2\\DP^2=3EP^2

HENCE PROVED   DP^2=3EP^2
