उत्तर
Given: ▢ABCD is a parallelogram. seg AD || seg BC and BD is their transversal.
To prove: `"AP"/"PD" = "PC"/"BP"`
Proof:
seg AD || seg BC and BD is their transversal. ...(Given)
∴ ∠DBC ≅ ∠BDA ...(Alternate angles)
∴ ∠PBC ≅ ∠PDA ...(i) [D−P−B]
In △PBC and △PDA,
∠PBC ≅ ∠PDA ...[From (i)]
∠BPC ≅ ∠DPA ...(Vertically opposite angles)
By AA test of similarity,
∴ △APD ∼ CPB
∴ `"AP"/"PC" = "PD"/"PB"` ...(Corresponding sides of similar triangles)
∴ `"AP"/"PD" = "PC"/"PB"` ...(By alternendo)
Hence proved.

In ∆PQR seg PM is a median. Angle bisectors of ∠PMQ and ∠PMR intersect side PQ and side PR in points X and Y respectively. Prove that XY || QR.
Complete the proof by filling in the boxes.
solution:
In ∆PMQ,
Ray MX is the bisector of ∠PMQ.
∴ `("MP")/("MQ") = square/square` .............(I) [Theorem of angle bisector]
Similarly, in ∆PMR, Ray MY is the bisector of ∠PMR.
∴ `("MP")/("MR") = square/square` .............(II) [Theorem of angle bisector]
But `("MP")/("MQ") = ("MP")/("MR")` .............(III) [As M is the midpoint of QR.]
Hence MQ = MR
∴ `("PX")/square = square/("YR")` .............[From (I), (II) and (III)]
∴ XY || QR .............[Converse of basic proportionality theorem]
