Given
QWER is a rhombus
To Prove :-
AK = KE , KW = KR also QE ⊥ WR
Proof :-
QWER is a rhombus
QWER is a parallelogram such that
QW = WE = ER = RQ. ... (1)
Diagonal of ||gm bisect each other
WK = KR and QK = KE .... (2)
Now,
In ∆QKW and ∆EKW
QW = WE ... (From 1)
QK = KE ..... (From 2)
KW = KW (Common)
∆QKW ≅ ∆EKW (SAS rule)
∠QKW = ∠WKE (CPCT)
But,
∠QKW + ∠WKE = 180°
∠QKW = ∠WKE = 90°
Therefore,
QK ⊥ WK
Hence,
QE ⊥ WR and QK = KE
KW = KR
