Solution


We know that the tangents drawn from the same external point are equal in length, Hence
DR=DS (tangents drawn from the point D) (1)
CR=CQ (tangents drawn from the point C) (2)
BP=BQ (tangents drawn from the point B) (3)
AP=AS (tangents drawn from the point A) (4)
Now, add the equations (1)(2)(3) & (4)
DR+CR+BR+AP=DS+CQ+BQ+AS
CD+AB=AD+BC
