उत्तर
Given that AD = AP = PB as 2AD = AB and p is the midpoint of AB
(i) From triangle DPR, A and Q are the mid-point of DP and DR.
Therefore AQ || PR
Since PR || BS ,hence AQ || BS
(ii) From triangle ABC, P is the midpoint and PR || BS
Therefore R is the mid-point of BC
From ΔBRS and ΔQRC
∠BRS = ∠QRC
BR = RC
∠RBS + ∠RCQ
∴ ΔBRS ≅ ΔQRC
∴ QR =RS
DS = DQ + QR + RS = QR + QR + RS = 3RS
