Given: Diagonals of quadrilateral ABCD intersects at point Q.
To find: Prove that DC=2AB
Solution:
- Now we have given that diagonals of quadrilateral ABCD intersects at point Q.
- We have also given: 2QA = QC and 2QB = QD
- Dividing both, we get:
2QA/2QB = QC/QD
QA/QB = QC/QD
QA/QC = QB/QD
- Now ∠AQB = ∠CQD ..................( Vertically opposite angles)
- Now comparing triangles QAB and QCD, we get:
QA / QC = QB / QD
∠AQB = ∠CQD
- So from above two, we get:
triangle QAB ≈ triangle QCD
QA/QC = AB/CD
1/2 = AB/CD
CD = 2 x AB
- Hence proved
Answer:
So we proved that CD = 2 x AB
