Answer:
Let a,b,c,d,m,n are the position vectors of A,B,C,D,M and N respectively
M and N are the midpoints of t diagonals AC and BD respectively ..... [Given]
∴m=2a+c and n=2b+d
⟹2m=a+c and 2n=b+d ........ (i)
Now, consider AB+AD+CB+CD
=(b−a)+(d−a)+(b−c)+(d−c)
=2b−2a−2c+2d
=2(b+d)−2(a+c)
=2(2n)−2(2m)
=4n−4m=4(n−m)=4MN
Hence, AB+AD+CB+CD=4MN
