Let diagonals AC and BD of a cyclic quadrilateral are diameters of the circle through the vertices of the quadrilateral ABCD.
From Figure,
OA = OB = OC = OD (Since all radius of a circle are equal)
=> OA = OC = 1/2 * AC ..........1
and OB = OD = 1/2 * BD ..........2
From equation 1 and 2, we get
1/2 * AC = 1/2 * BD
=> AC = BD
So diagonals AC and BD of the quadrilateral ABCD are equal and bisect each other.

Hello mate =_=

Solution:
It is given that ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral. Also, AC and BD are two diameters of circle having centre O.
We need to prove that ABCD is a rectangle.
BD is a diameter which means that ∠BCD=∠DAB=90° ......... (1)
(Angle in a semi-circle is equal to 90°)
Similarly, AC is a diagonals which means that ∠ABC=∠ADC=90° .....(2)
(Angle in a semi-circle is equal to 90°)
From (1) and (2), we can notice that opposite angles of quadrilateral ABCD are equal which makes it a parallelogram.
Also, all the corner angles are equal to 90° which makes it a rectangle.
I hope, this will help you.
Thank you______❤
