In the given figure, `square`PQRS and `square`MNRL are rectangles. If point M is the midpoint of side PR then prove that,

  1. SL = LR
  2. LN = `1/2`SQ

बेरीज

उत्तर

(i) `square`LMNR and `square`MNRL are rectangles.

∴ Side LM || Side RN        ...(Opposite sides of rectangle)

That is, Side LM || Side RQ        ...(R-N-Q) ...(i)

Side RQ || Side SP       ...(Opposite sides of the rectangle) ...(ii)

From (i) and (ii),

Side LM || Side SP       ...(iii)

In ΔRSP,

Point M is the midpoint of Seg PR.

Line LM || Line SP        ...[From (iii)]

∴ Point L is the midpoint of Seg SR.        ...(Converse of Midpoint Theorem) ...(iv)

∴ SL = LR

(ii) The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent.

∴ SQ = PR    ...(v)

LN = MR      ...(vi)

Now, MR = `1/2` PR       ...(Point M is the midpoint of line PR.) ...(vii)

∴ LN = `1/2` PR        ...[From (vi) and (vii)]   ...(viii)

∴ LN = `1/2` SQ       ...[From (vii) and (viii)]
