Hey user!!
ACCORDING TO CYCLIC QUADRILATERAL,, if the diagonals of a cyclic quad. is equal then the opp. sides of it must be equal..
THIS STATES BY A THEOREM.
SO, WHEN THE DIAGONALS ARE EQUAL THEN YOU CAN SAY THAT OPP. SIDES ARE EQUAL ..THAT IS PQ=RS..
HOPE IT HELPS U
THANKS..

Given that PR and QS are diameters.
Therefore, OP=OR=OQ=OS (radius of the circle )
In triangle POQ and triangle SOR,
OP=OR (radius )
OQ=OS (radius)
angle POQ = angle SOR (vertically opposite angles )
Therefore triangle POQ congruent to triangle SOR (by SAS congruence criteria )
That is , PQ = SR (CPCT )
