ABCD is a parallelogram, E and F are mid points of AB and DC
and a line GH intersects AD,EF and BC at G,P and H respectively. Join GB and let it intersect EF of X.
Now since E and F are mid points of AB and DC
so`AE=EB= (1/2)AB`
and `DF=FC=(1/2)DC`
but `AB=DC`
so AEFD and BCFE are parallelogram
so `AD||EF||BC ` ....... ( 1 )
Now In `/_\ABG`
`AE=EB`and `EX||AG `
( From ( 1 ) ) so ,X is the mid point of GB (mid point theorem )
...
