ABCD is a parallelogram,P and Q are points on DC and AB respectively,such that angle DAP=angleBCQ.Show that Acqp is a parallelogram.

Given: A parallelogram ABCDTo Prove: APCQ is parallelogram.Proof: ∠A = ∠C{Opposite angle of parallelogram are equal}∠DAP +∠PAQ = ∠PCQ+∠QCB∠PAQ = ∠PCQ Which is a pair of opposite anglesso, APCQ is parallelogram.

It is given that angDAP= angBCQ.

But angDAP= ang APC ( alternate interior angles) and

angBCQ= ang AQC (alternate interior angles)

Therefore angAPC= ang AQC

Consider Quadrilateral AQCP,

Opposite angles i.e. ang APC and ang AQC are equal,

Therefore,

AQCP is a parallelogram

Proved!

Thumbs up if you find it useful!
