in the adjoining figure ABCD is a kite in which ab = a d and c b equals to CD if E, F ,G are respectively the midpoints of Ab and CD prove that angle E, F ,G equals to 90 degree and if GH parallel to AC then h bisects CB
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
and join the mid points of side ab and ad .let the mid points be e and f resp.
NOW ABD is triangle and by converse of midpoint theoram EF=1/2 BD AND EF//BD. Similarly in Δ BCD GH=1/2BD AND GH//BD (let g and h be midpoints of side CD AND BC resp.)
NOW, EF=GH AND EF//GH (by euclid's axiom no.1)
so,EFGH IS //grm
JOIN THE another diagonal ac and let the intersection be O
let the intersection of eh and ef with bd and ac be x and y resp.
now EX // yo and EY//XO SO, EXOH //grm
diagonals of kite bisect at 90° so ∠o=∠e=90°
∠feh=90°
so all angles are 90
Step-by-step explanation:
EF||BD by mid point theorem.
MF||ON
Similarly, FN||ON,
And, the diagonals of a kite intersect at right angles.
So, angle EFG is a right angle as the enclosed figure is forming a rectangle.
