Question

and
ABCD is a rectangle and P,Q,R and S are mid-point of
the sides AB, BC, DC and AD respectively, show
that the quadrilateral PQRS is a RHOMBUS​

Answer 1

Hey Buddy ... what's up..

Here is your answer with a detailed explanation..

Hope u will find it easy to Get....

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are joining A and C.

In ΔABC

P is the mid point of AB

Q is the mid point of BC

PQ∣∣AC [Line segments joining the mid points of two sides of a triangle is parallel to AC(third side) and also is half of it]

PQ=21AC

In ΔADC

R is mid point of CD

S is mid point of AD

RS∣∣AC [Line segments joining the mid points of two sides of a triangle is parallel to third side and also is half of it]

RS=21AC

So, PQ∣∣RS and PQ=RS [one pair of opposite side is parallel and equal]

In ΔAPS & ΔBPQ

AP=BP [P is the mid point of AB)

∠PAS=∠PBQ(All the angles of rectangle are 90o)

AS=BQ

∴ΔAPS≅ΔBPQ(SAS congruency)

∴PS=PQ

BS=PQ & PQ=RS (opposite sides of parallelogram is equal)

∴ PQ=RS=PS=RQ[All sides are equal]

∴ PQRS is a parallelogram with all sides equal

∴ So PQRS is a rhombus.

Hope u get it...
