To solve the problem step by step, we will use the properties of trapeziums and the basic proportionality theorem. ### Step 1: Understand the problem We have a trapezium ABCD where AB is parallel to DC. Points P and Q are on sides AD and BC respectively, and PQ is also parallel to DC. We know the lengths PD, BQ, and QC. ### Step 2: Draw the trapezium Draw trapezium ABCD with AB parallel to DC. Mark points P on AD and Q on BC such that PQ is parallel to DC. ...
