Solution

The correct option is D $¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯ P A + ¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯ P B = 2 ¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯ P C$
Let $\to p, \to a, \to b, \to c$ be the position vectors of points $P, A, B, C$ respectively.
$L . H . S = ¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯ P A + ¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¯ P B = \to p - \to a + \to p - \to b = 2 (\to p - \frac{\to a + \to b}{2}) = 2 \to P C$
