Explanation of Solution

Given information:NOTPOVNP  and O is a midpoint

Formula used:ASA congruency rule and SAS congruency rules.

Proof:

In ΔNOT and ΔPOV

  NOT=POV (Given)

  N=P (Given)

  NO=PO (O is midpoint)

  ΔNOTΔPOV (By angel side angel congruency rule)

  TO¯=VO¯ (Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are equal) ...(1)

Now, in ΔRON and ΔSOP

  NO=PO (O is midpoint)

  N=P (Given)

  NOT=POV (Given)

  NOT+VOT=POV+VOT (Adding VOT both sides)

  VON=TOP

Or RON=SOP

  RN¯=SP¯ (Because lines opposite to equal angels are equal)

  ΔRONΔSOP (By angel side angel congruency rule)

  RO¯=SO¯ (Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are equal) ...(2)

From 1 and 2

  →RO¯=SO¯

  RV¯+VO¯=ST¯+TO¯

  RV¯=ST¯ (Because VO¯=TO¯ )
