if the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other at right angle then prove that the quadrilateral is a rhombus......... explain
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Show that if the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other at right angles, then it is a rhombus. Sol: We have a quadrilateral ABCD such that the diagonals AC and BD bisect each other at right angles at O. Their corresponding parts are equal. Thus, the quadrilateral ABCD is a rhombus.

Answer:
To prove -:
If diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other ar right angles, then it is a rhombus.
Proof-:
Let a quadrilateral ABCD whose diagonals intersect at O.
In ∆AOB and ∆AOD,
OB = OD (Given)
AO = AO (Common)
∠AOB = ∠AOD (90°)
∆AOB ≅ ∆AOD (by SAS criteria)
∴AB = AD (by c.p.c.t)............(i)
Now,
In ∆BOC and ∆COD,
OB = OD (given)
CO = CO (common)
∠BOC = ∠COD(90°)
∆BOC ≅ ∆COD (by SAS criteria)
∴BC = CD (by c.p.c.t).............(ii)
Similarly,
We can prove that,
AB = BC..........(iii)
CD = AD..........(iv)
From (i),(ii),(iii) and (iv)
AB = BC = CD = AD
Since, all the sides of a rhombus are equal and it is given that the diagonals bisect at 90°,then ABCD is a rhombus.
