ANSWER
According to the given statement, the figure will be a shown alongside; using mid-point theorem:
In △ABC,PQ∥AC and PQ=
2
1
AC .......(1)
In △ADC,SR∥AC and SR=
2
1
AC .......(2)
∴PQ=SR and PQ∥SR from (1) and (2)
⇒PQRS is a parallelogram.
Now,PQRS will be a rectangle if any angle of the parallelogram PQRS is 90
∘
PQ∥AC(by midpoint theorem)
QR=BD(by midpoint theorem)
But AC⊥BD(diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular to each other)
∴PQ⊥QR(angle between two lines = angle between their parallels)
Hence PQRS is a rectangle.
