- Let a square ABCD in which L,M,N&O
- are the midpoints .
in △AML and △CNO
- AM = CN.
( AB = DC and M and O are the midpoints )
- AL = CM
( AD = BC and L and N are the midpoints )
- ∠MAL = angle NCO
( all angles of a square = 90 degree )
by AAS critaria
- △AML CONGRUENT to △CNO
∴ ML = ON ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀( CPCT )
similarly,
- In △MBN CONGRUENT to LDO
- △AML is CONGRUENT to triangle
now ,
- in △AML ,
∠ AML = ∠ ALM ( AM = AL )
= 45 degree
similarly
- in △LDO
∠ DLO = 45 degree
∴ ⠀⠀ ⠀∠ MLO = 90 degree
By the properties of SQUARE
All sides are equal and angles are 90 degree .
In a square ABCD, P,Q,R and S are the mid-points of AB,BC,CD and DA respectively.
⇒ AB=BC=CD=AD [ Sides of square are equal ]
In △ADC,
SR ∥ AC and SR=½ AC [ By mid-point theorem ] ---- ( 1 )
In △ABC,
PQ ∥ AC and PQ=½AC [ By mid-point theorem ] ---- ( 2 )
From equation ( 1 ) and ( 2 ),
SR ∥ PQ and SR=PQ=½ AC ---- ( 3 )
Similarly, SP ∥ BD and BD ∥ RQ
∴ SP ∥ RQ and SP=½ BD
and RQ= ½BD
∴ SP=RQ=½BD
Since, diagonals of a square bisect each other at right angle.
∴ AC=BD
⇒ SP=RQ= ½ AC ----- ( 4 )
From ( 3 ) and ( 4 )
SR=PQ=SP=RQ
We know that the diagonals of a square bisect each other at right angles.
∠EOF=90°
.
Now, RQ∥DB
RE∥FO
Also, SR∥AC
⇒ FR∥OE
∴ OERF is a parallelogram.
So, ∠FRE=∠EOF=90°
(Opposite angles are equal)
Thus, PQRS is a parallelogram with ∠R=90°
and SR=PQ=SP=RQ
∴ PQRS is a square.
