उत्तर

In ΔDEP,
C and R are the mid-points of PE and DE respectively.
Also, DP || RC
∴ CR = `(1)/(2)"DP"`......(i)
In ΔABC,
D and P are the mid-points of BC andAC respectively.
Also, DP || AB
∴ DP = `(1)/(2)"AB"`......(ii)
Substituting the value of DP from (ii) and(i)
⇒ CR = `(1)/(2)(1/2 "AB")`
⇒ CR = `(1)/(4)"AB"`
∴ 4CR = AB.
