उत्तर
In ΔPQR,
T is the mid-point of QR and VT || PQ
So, V is the mid-point of PR.
Since R divides PR in the ratio 2 : 1 and PV = VR,
so, PV = PR = RS
Since R is the mid-point of SV and RW || VT,
W is the mid-point of ST.
Since V is the mid-point of PR and VT || PQ,
T is the mid-point of UW.
So, UT = TW = SW
⇒ T divides SU in the ratio 2 : 1
Also,
R and W are the midpoints SV and TS respectively.
⇒ WR = `(1)/(2)"VT"`
V and T are the mid-points of PR and UW respectively.
⇒ VT = `(1)/(2)"PQ"`
So, WR = `(1)/(2)(1/2 "PQ")`
⇒ WR = `(1)/(4)"PQ"`.
