Question -

In a ΔABC median AD is produced to X such that AD = DX. Prove that ABXC is a parallelogram.



Answer -

  is given with AD as the median extended to point X such that  .
 
Join BX and CX.
We get a quadrilateral ABXC, we need to prove that it’s a parallelogram.
We know that AD is the median.
By definition of median we get:
 
Also, it is given that
 
Thus, the diagonals of the quadrilateral ABCX bisect each other.
Therefore, quadrilateral ABXC is a parallelogram.
Hence proved.
