Question

3.
Show that if the diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal and bisect each other at right
angles, then it is a square.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

it was given that AC is equals to D B more is equals to Oz and OD is equals to B O and it was also given that angle w angle X angle by angle Z is equal to 90 degree but we have to prove that ad is equal to c b by making the triangle congruent B prove that

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

______________________________

Given that,

Let ABCD be a quadrilateral

It's iagonals AC and BD bisect each other at right angle at O.

To prove that

The Quadrilateral ABCD is a square.

Proof,

In ΔAOB and ΔCOD,

⇝ AO = CO (Diagonals bisect each other)

⇝ ∠AOB = ∠COD (Vertically opposite)

⇝ OB = OD (Diagonals bisect each other)

⇝ ΔAOB ≅ ΔCOD [SAS congruency]

Thus,

⇝ AB = CD [CPCT] — (i)

also,

∠OAB = ∠OCD (Alternate interior angles)

⇒ AB || CD

Now,

⇝ In ΔAOD and ΔCOD,

⇝ AO = CO (Diagonals bisect each other)

⇝ ∠AOD = ∠COD (Vertically opposite)

⇝ OD = OD (Common)

⇝ ΔAOD ≅ ΔCOD [SAS congruency]

Thus,

AD = CD [CPCT] ____ (ii)

also,

AD = BC and AD = CD

⇒ AD = BC = CD = AB ____ (ii)

also, ∠ADC = ∠BCD [CPCT]

and ∠ADC + ∠BCD = 180° (co-interior angles)

⇒ 2∠ADC = 180°

⇒ ∠ADC = 90° ____ (iii)

One of the interior angles is right angle.

Thus, from (i), (ii) and (iii) given quadrilateral ABCD is a square.
