`Delta ABC` is an acute angled `BE bot AC and CF bot AD` and Beand CF intersect each, other at a point Q. AP is the diameter of the circumcricle of `Delta ABC`.
To Prove : AP is diameter of the circle `:. angle ABP and angleACP` are bto semi-circular angles.
`:. angle ABP= angle ACP=90^(@).......(1)`
`:. CF bot AB, :. angle CEB=90^(@)`
`:. angle FBQ=90^(@)- angleFQB .........(2)`
Again, `BE bot AC, :. angle BEC=90^(@), :. angleBCQ=90^(@)-angleCQE......(3)`
But `angle FQB= angle CQE[ :.` Opposite angles]
`:.` from (2) and (3) , we get `angle FBQ= angle ECQ`
Then `angle PBQ= angle PBA- angle FBQ= angle ACP- angle ECQ [ :. angle PBA= angle AC and angleFBQ= angle ECQ]= angle PCQ`
`:.` two opposite angles `angle PBQ and angle PCQ` of the quadrilaterl BPCQ are equal.
Hence by the propery of parallelogram. BPCQ is a parallelogram.
