उत्तर
In Δ BEF and ΔCED
`∠`BEF = `∠`CED [Verified opposite angle]
BE = CE [ ∵ E is the mid-point of BC]

`∠`EBF = `∠`ECD [∵ Alternate interior angles are equal]
∴ ∇ BEF ≅ Δ CED [Angle side angle congruence]
∴ BF = CD [Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles]
AF = AB + AF
AF = AB + AB
AF = 2 AB

ABCD is a quadrilateral in which P, Q, R and S are mid-points of the sides AB, BC, CD and DA (see the given figure). AC is a diagonal. Show that:
- SR || AC and SR = `1/2AC`
- PQ = SR
- PQRS is a parallelogram.

In Fig. below, triangle ABC is right-angled at B. Given that AB = 9 cm, AC = 15 cm and D,
E are the mid-points of the sides AB and AC respectively, calculate
