PQ || RS and PQ = RS
In PQRS,
one pair of opposite side is parallel nad equal.
Hence, PQRS is a parallelogram.

hope it helps. mark me brainliest if it helps.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we are joining A and C.
In triangle ABC,
P is the mid point of AB
Q is the mid point of BC
PQ||AC
PQ=1/2 AC
In triangle ADC
R is mid point of CD
S is the mid point of AD
RS||AC
RS=1/2AC
So,PQ||RS and PQ=RS
AP=BP
angle PAS=angleBPQ
AS=BQ
ΔAPS=ΔBPQ
PQ=RS=PS=PQ
hence proves it is a rhombus
