`XY` is a straight line parallel to the side `MT` of the parallelogram `MNOT`, which intersects the side `MN` at `X` and the side `TO` at `Y.E` and `F` are two points on `XY`. If `ME` and `TF` are extended, they intersect at `P` and the extended `NE` and `OF` intersect each other at `Q`. Prove that `PQ||MN||TO`.
