if the diagonals of parallelogram are equal then show that it is a rectangle
Answers
In triangle ACD and triangle BDC
AC=BD (GIVEN)
DC=DC (COMMON)
AD=BC (OPPOSITE SIDES OF PARALLELOGRAM)
Therefore,triangle ACD is congruent to triangle BDC
Angle D=Angle C (CPCT)
In parallelogram the sum of adjacent angle is 180
therefore angle D+angleC=180
2 angleC=180
Angle C=180/2
Angle C =90
Therefore all angles are of 90 degree
Therefore it is a parallelogram
Answer:
hi!!!!
here is your answer!!!!!!!!!
Step-by-step explanation:
In ΔACD and ΔBDC
AC= BD (GIVEN, diagonals of parallelogram as equal)
CD= DC ( common)
AD= BC ( opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal)
ΔACD ≡ ( congurent) ΔBDC ( SSS congruence)
So, angle D = angle C ( corresponding parts of congruent triangles)
ANGLE D + ANGLE C = 180 degrees( co- interior angles)
AS, angle D = angle C
180/2 = 90 degrees
As angle D = C = 90 degrees
SO, Angle A = C = 90 degrees ( opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal)
AND, B= D = 90 degrees ( opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal)
all angle are 90 degree.
hence it is rectangle
hope this would help you!!!!!
