Question

diagonals of rectangle ABC intersect at point c if AC =8 cm then find BO
​

Answer 1

Answer:

i. AC = 8 cm …( i) [Given]

ABCD is a rectangle [Given]

∴ BD = AC [Diagonals of a rectangle are congruent]

∴ BD = 8 cm [From (i)]

BO = (1/2) BD [Diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other]

∴ BO = (1/2) x 8.

∴ BO = 4 cm.

ii. side AD || side BC and seg AC is their transversal. [ Opposite sides of a rectangle are parallel]
