Let $ABC$ be a triangle with $\angle CAB > 45^o$ and $\angle CBA > 45^o$. Construct an isosceles right angled triangle $RAB$ with $AB$ as its hypotenuse and $R$ inside $ABC$. Also construct isosceles right angled triangles $ACQ$ and $BCP$ having $AC$ and $BC$ respectively as their hypotenuses and lying entirely outside $ABC$. Show that $CQRP$ is a parallelogram.
