HELLO DEAR,
Theorem 8.6
The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
Given: ABCD is a parallelogram with
AC and BD diagonals and O is
the point of intersection of AC
and BD.
To Prove: OA= OC and OB=OD.
Proof: since, opposite sides of
parallelogram are parallel.
AD ।। BC
with transversal BD
ang(ODA)= ang(OBC)
( Alternate interior angles)
AD ।। BC
with transversal AC
ang(OAD)= ang(OCB)
(Alternate interior angles)
In ∆AOD & ∆BOC
<OAD = <OCB (from above substitution)
AD = CB (opposite sides of llgram are equal)
<ODA = <OBC (from above substitution)
∆AOD ≅ ∆BOC (by ASA)
so,
OA = OC and OB = OD. (by CPCT)
I HOPE IT'S HELP YOU DEAR,
THANKS.
