उत्तर
Given: ABCD is a parallelogram. A circle whose centre O passes through A, B is so drawn that it intersect AD at P and BC at Q.
To prove: Points P, Q, C and D are con-cyclic.

Construction: Join PQ
Proof: ∠1 = ∠A ...[Exterior angle property of cyclic quadrilateral]
But ∠A = ∠C ...[Opposite angles of a parallelogram]
∴ ∠1 = ∠C ...(i)
But ∠C + ∠D = 180° ...[Sum of cointerior angles on same side is 180°]
⇒ ∠1 + ∠D = 180° ...[From equation (i)]
Thus, the quadrilateral QCDP is cyclic.
So, the points P, Q, C and D are con-cyclic.
Hence proved.
