Given
- ABCD is a parallelogram
- AB = CD, BC = AD
- AC = BD
To Prove
- ABCD is a rectangle
- AB = CD, AC = BD
- ∠A = ∠B = ∠C = ∠D = 90°
Proof
In △ABC and △DAB
AD = BC [ opp. sides of a llgm are equal ]
AB = BA [ Common ]
AC = BD [ Given ]
△ABC ≅ △DAB [ by SSS congruence rule ]
∠A = ∠B [ by CPCT ] -------eq.1
Since ABCD is a ||gm and AB is a transversal.
➞ ∠A + ∠B = 180° [ Co-interior Angle ]
➞ ∠A + ∠A = 180° [ from eq. 1 ]
➞ 2∠A = 180°
➞ ∠A = 180° / 2
➞ ∠A = 90°
Since opposite angles of parallelogram are equal
Therefore, ∠A = ∠B = ∠C = ∠D = 90°
Hence, ABCD is a rectangle.
