उत्तर
In the given ΔPQR,
PS < PR .....(Of all the straight lines that can be drawn to a given straight line from a point outside it, the perpendicular is the shortest)
PN < PR ....(i) (∵ PN < PS)
Also,
RT < PR .....(Of all the straight lines that can be drawn to a given straight line from a point outside it, the perpendicular is the shortest)
RN < PR .....(ii) (∵ RN < RT)
Dividing (i) bt (ii),
`"PN"/"RN" < "PR"/"PR"`
`"PN"/"RN" < 1`
PN < RN.
