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"`.
