In triangle AHE AND FGC ...1.AE = GC(GIVEN)
2.ANGLE HAE= ANGLE FCG = 90 DEGREE( ALL ANGLES OF RECTANGLE R 90 DEGRESS)
3.ANGLE EHA = ANGLE CGF = 45 DEGREE( ANGLE SUM PROPERTY OF TRIANGLE)
So by AAS axion of congruency AHE is congruent to FGC
so by cpct EH = GF
therefore EH is parallel to GF
Similarly in Triangle BEF AND TRIANGLE HDG
1. HD = BF(GIVEN)
2. ANGLE HDG = ANGLE EBF = 90 DEGREES
3.ANGLE DGH = ANGLE BFE = 45 DEGREES
So by AAS axiom of congruency
Triangle BEF is congruent to TRIANGLE HDG
so by cpct HG = EF
therefore HG is parallel toEF
And hence EFGH is a parallelogram!

Given AE=BF=CG=DH
⟹ So, EB=FC=GD=HA
In △s AEH and BFE,
AE=BF, AH=EB,
∠A=∠B (each ∠ = 90⁰)
∴ △AEH ≅ △BFE
⟹ EH=EF and ∠4= ∠2.
But ∠1 + ∠4 = 90⁰ ⟹ ∠1 + ∠2 = 90⁰
⟹ ∠HEF = 90⁰
And if ∠HEF = 90⁰ so, ∠EFG = 90⁰, ∠FGH = 90⁰ and ∠GHE = 90⁰.
Hence Proved.
