Question

if a diagonals of parallelogram are equal then show it is a rectangle​

Answer 1

Answer:

□ ABCD is a parallelogram

consider Δ ACD and Δ ABD

AC = BD .... (given)

AB = DC .... (opposite sides of parallelogram)

AD = AD .... (common side)

∴Δ ACD ≅Δ ABD (sss test of congruence)

∠ BAD = ∠ CDA .... (cpct)

∠BAD+∠CDA=180

∘

. [Adjacent angles of parallelogram are supplementary]

so ∠ BAD and ∠ CDA are right angles as they are congruent and supplementary.

Therefor, □ ABCD is a rectangle since a

parallelogram with one right interior angle is a rectangle.
