  1. OM//FD => ΔHMO~ΔHFD => HM/HF = HO/HD
    OE//GD => ΔHOE~ΔHDG => HE/HG = HO/HD
    So HM/HF = HE/HG,
    ΔHME~ΔHFG
    and hence ME//FG

    BS//GC and angle SBE=angle ECG ,angle SEB=angleCEG,BE=EC ,so ,triangles SBE,ECG are equal,therefore ,SB=CG.
    QS//EF,so,HB/HO=BS/OE=BQ/OF. But, OF=OE, so ,SB=BQ=CG
    BQ/QA=NB/AF, CG/GD=CT/FD .But, BQ/QA= CG/GD .So, NB/AS= CT/FD. Because AS=FD,is ,NB=CT,therefore, NB+BE=EC+CT , namely,NE=ET and E ,is,midpoint of NT.
    Because,O midpoint of EF and OM//AD//BC, M,is midpoint of FN.So ,from the triangle FNT ,is ME//FT .

  3. Since OE//DG => HE/HG= HO/HD
    Since OM//FD => HO/HD=HM/HF

    From above relations we have HE/HG=HM/HF => ME//FG
