- ABCD is a Quadrilateral
- AC = BD
- OA = OC and OB = OD
- ∠AOB = ∠BOC = ∠COD = ∠AOD = 90°
- ABCD is a Square
Here :-
∆AOB ≈ ∆COB by SAS Congruence Criteria .
Hence :-
Similarly :-
∆AOB ≈ ∆DOA by SAS Congruence Criteria .
Hence :-
Similarly :-
∆BOC ≈ ∆COD by SAS Congruence Criteria .
Hence :-
We have proved that ABCD is a Parallelogram .
Here :-
∆ABC ≈ ∆DCB by SSS Congruence Criteria .
Hence :-
Now :-
ABCD is a Square with one angle 90° .
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.
