Answer:

  • 1/2 QP = UT
  • SU ║ RP

Explanation:

If UT is parallel to QP, then it is half the length of QP. ΔTUR ~ ΔPQR with a scale factor of 1/2.

It T is the midpoint of PR, then SU is parallel to RP and half its length. Again, ΔQSU ~ ΔQPR with a scale factor of 1/2.

There is no diagram accompanying this problem statement. If the above assumptions are incorrect, then the conclusions are incorrect.
