उत्तर

Let P and Q be the midpoints of AB and AC respectively.

Then PQ || BC such that

PQ = `1/2` BC         ......(i)

In ΔAPQ, D and E are the midpoint of AP and AQ are respectively

∴ DE || PQ and DE = `1/2` PQ       ....(ii)

From (1) and (2)   DE = `1/2 PQ = 1/2 PQ =  1/2  (1/2 BC) `    

DE = `1 /4`BC

Hence, proved.
