Problem

In △PQR\triangle PQR, let DD, EE and FF be the mid-points of sides PQPQ, PRPR and QRQR respectively. (i) Prove that PQ∥FEPQ\parallel FE and PR∥DFPR\parallel DF. (ii) Hence, show that quadrilateral PDFEP D F E is a parallelogram. (iii) Prove that the area of parallelogram PDFEP D F E is equal to one-half the area of △PQR\triangle PQR.
