उत्तर
Join B and D. Suppose AC and BD cut at O. Then,
OC = `(1)/(2)"AC"`
Now,
PC = `(1)/(4)"AC"`
⇒ PC = `(1)/(2)"OC"`
In ΔDCO, E and P are the mid-points of DC and OC respectively.
∴ EP || DO
Also, in ΔCOB, P is the midpoint of OC and PF || DO || BD
Therefore, F is the mid-point of BC, F being EP produced.
