P is a point on the side BC off the `DeltaABC` and Q is a point such that PQ is the resultant of AP,PB and PC. Then, ABQC is a

A

square

B

rectangle

C

parallelogram

D

trapezium

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`AP+PB+PC=PQ` or `AP+PB=PQ+CP`
`impliesAB=CQ`

Hence, it is a parallelogram.
