consider the rhombus ABCD
AB=BC=CD=DA (adjecent sides are equal)
in triangleAOD and triangle COD
OA=OC (diagonals of parallogram bisect each other )
OD is common
AD=CD(PROVED ABOVE)
TRIANGLE AOD congurent to triangleCOD(SSS)
ANGLE AOD = ANGLE COD (CPCT)
ANGLE AOD + ANGLE COD = 180 (L P)
2 ANGLE AOD = 180
ANGLE AOD = 90
