in the alongside diagram, the bisectors of
interior angles of the parallelogram PQRS
enclose a quadrilateral ABCD.
how that:
(0) ZPSB + ZSPB = 90° (ii) ZPBS = 90°
(iii) ZABC = 90° (iv) ZADC = 90°
(v) ZA = 90° (vi) ABCD is a rectangle
Thus, the bisectors of the angles of a
parallelogram enclose a rectangle.

in the alongside diagram, the bisectors of interior angles of the parallelogram PQRS enclose a quadrilateral ABCD.
- In parallelogram PQRS,
- PS || QR (opposite sides)
- ∠P + ∠Q = 180°
- AP and AQ are the bisectors of consecutive angles ∠P and ∠Q of the parallelogram
- ∠APQ + ∠AQP = 1/2 × 180° = 90°
- But in ∆APQ,
- ∠A + ∠APQ + ∠AQP = 180° (Angles of a triangle)
- ∠A + 90° = 180°
- ∠A = 180° – 90°
- (v) ∠A = 90°
- Similarly PQ || SR
- (i) ∠PSB + ∠SPB = 90°
- (ii) ∠PBS = 90°
- But, ∠ABC = ∠PBS (Vertically opposite angles)
- (iii) ∠ABC = 90°
- Similarly
- (iv) ∠ADC = 90° and ∠C = 90°
- (vi) ABCD is a rectangle (Each angle of a quadrilateral is 90°)
- Hence proved.
