Answer:1. SQUARE AND RECTANGLE
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangle is a quadrilateral with opposite sides equal & parallel to each other.
Each angle is a right one.
In the figure, ABCD is a rectangle whose diagonals divide it into 4 Δs viz. ΔABC, ΔADC, ΔABD & ΔCBD
Since all the angles are right ones, the above Δs are right Δs.
So, AC

=AB
2
+BC
2
& BD
2
=CD
2
+BC
2
But AB=CD ...(opposite sides of a rectangle)
⟹AC
2
=BD
2
⟹AC=BD.
So, the diagonals of a rectangle are equal.
Again a square is a special rectangle whose all sides are equal to each other.
∴ The diagonals of a square are equal.
