प्रश्न
In ΔABC, AB = 12 cm and AC = 9 cm. If M is the mid-point of AB and a straight line through M parallel to AC cuts BC in N, what is the length of MN?
उत्तर
MN || AC and M is mid-point of AB
Therefore, N is mid-point of BC
Hence, MN = `(1)/(2)"AC" = (9)/(2)"cm"` = 4.5cm.

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.
Fill in the blank to make the following statement correct:
The triangle formed by joining the mid-points of the sides of a right triangle is
In the given figure, `square`PQRS and `square`MNRL are rectangles. If point M is the midpoint of side PR then prove that,
