Given: ABCD is a square, where {tex}\angle{/tex}PQR = 90o and PB = QC = DR
To prove: (i) QB = RC (ii) PQ = QR
(iii) {tex}\angle{/tex}QPR = 45o
Proof:
BC = CD … (Sides of square)
CQ = DR … (Given)
BC = BQ + CQ
{tex}\therefore{/tex} CQ = BC − BQ
{tex}\therefore{/tex} DR = BC – BQ .......(1)
Also,
CD = RC + DR
{tex}\therefore{/tex} DR = CD - RC = BC - RC ........(2)
From (1) and (2), we have,
BC - BQ = BC - RC
{tex}\therefore{/tex} BQ = RC
we have, PB = QC … (Given)
BQ = RC … [from (i)]
{tex}\angle{/tex}RCQ = {tex}\angle{/tex}QBP … 90o each
Hence by SAS(Side-Angle-Side) congruence rule,
{tex}\triangle{/tex}RCQ {tex}\cong{/tex} {tex}\triangle{/tex}QBP
{tex}\therefore{/tex} QR = PQ … (by cpct)
{tex}\therefore{/tex} In {tex}\triangle{/tex}RPQ,
{tex}\angle{/tex}QPR = {tex}\angle{/tex}QRP ={tex}\frac{1}{2}{/tex}(180o - 90o) = {tex}\frac{90}{2}{/tex}= 45o
{tex}\therefore{/tex} {tex}\angle{/tex}QPR = 45o
