if the diagnols of parallellogram are equal then show that it is a rectangle

ANSWER
Ref.Image
□ 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.
thanyou i hope its not help you plz mark me as branlist
Given:
A parallelogram ABCD with diagonals AC & BD.
To prove:
ABCD is a rectangle.
Proof:
In ∆ABC & ∆ABD
AB=AB ( common )
AC=BD (given )
BC=AD ( opposite sides of a ||gm).
⇒ △ABC ≅ △BAD [ by SSS congruence axiom]
⇒ ∠ABC = △BAD [c.p.c.t.]
Also, ∠ABC + ∠BAD = 180° [co - interior angles]
⇒ ∠ABC + ∠ABC = 180° [∵ ∠ABC = ∠BAD]
⇒ 2∠ABC = 180°
⇒ ∠ABC = 1 /2 × 180° = 90°
Hence, parallelogram ABCD is a rectangle.
