(i) If P, Q, R are the midpoints of sides AB, AC, BC respectively of △ABC, show that △PQR is congruent to △QPA and to two other triangles which you should identify. (ii) Suppose someone erases △ABC, leaving only △PQR on the paper. Can you reconstruct △ABC from △PQR?

(i) By the Midpoint Theorem, PQ = BC/2 = BR = RC, QR = AB/2 = AP = PB and PR = AC/2 = AQ = QC, so △PQR ≅ △QPA ≅ △RPB ≅ △CQR by SSS.
(ii) Yes, construct lines through each vertex parallel to the opposite side.

  1. (i) By the Midpoint Theorem, each segment connecting two midpoints equals half the opposite third side and is parallel to it. Therefore, PQ = RC = BR, QR = AP = PB and RP = AQ = QC. By SSS congruence, △PQR ≅ △QPA ≅ △RPB ≅ △CQR.
    (ii) Yes. Through points P, Q and R, draw lines parallel to QR, PR and PQ respectively. Their intersections form the vertices C, B and A of △ABC.
