Answer:
Given:
- line segment joining made point M and N of sides AB and CD quadrilateral ABCD is perpendicular to both.
To prove:
- Prove that other sides of quadrilateral are are equal
Solution:
Construction Join - CM and DM
In ΔCMN and ΔDMN
MN=MN ( Common)
∠CNM = ∠DNM = 90° (MN Is perpendicular to DC)
CN = DN (Since N is the mid point of DC)
By SAS congruency Δ CMN ≅Δ DMN
Therefore,
CM = DM (CPCT)
∠CMN = ∠ DMN (CPCT)
∠AMN = ∠BMN = 90 (Since MN is perpendicular to AB)
So, ∠AMN − ∠CMN = ∠BMN − ∠ DMN (Since ∠CMN = ∠ DMN )
∠AMD = ∠ BMC
In Δ AMD and Δ BMC DM = CM (Proved above)
∠AMD = ∠ BMC (Proved above)
AM = BM (M is the mid point of AB)
By SAS congruency
Δ AMD ≅Δ BMC
Therefore, AD = BC (CPCT)
Hence Proved
