Solution.
Given: ABCD is a parallelogram and AP = CQ
To Prove: AC and PQ bisect each other.
Proof :

\Rightarrow AB\parallel DC
\Rightarrow AP\parallel QC
It is given that AP = CQ
Thus APCQ is a parallelogram.
And we know that diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
Hence AC and PQ bisect each other.
Hence proved
