Given :- ABCD is a parallelogram. AP bisects begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleA and CQ bisects begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleC
 
In the given parallelogram, begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleDAB = begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleDCB. let each of angle measures α
begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleB + begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleDAB = begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleB + α = 180 ...............(1)
 
since AP and CQ are angle bisectors, we have begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleDAP = begin mathsize 12px style angle end stylePAQ = begin mathsize 12px style angle end stylePCQ = begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleBCQ = α/2
 
begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleAQC = begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleB+begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleBCQ ( exterior angle equals sum of interior angles in ΔQBC
hence begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleAQC + begin mathsize 12px style angle end stylePAQ = begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleB+begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleBCQ+begin mathsize 12px style angle end stylePAQ = begin mathsize 12px style angle end styleB + α = 180° ( using eqn.(1)
Sum of interior angles is 180°, hence AP || QC
 
also we have PC || AQ,  hence AQCP is parallelogram
