it can be done by contra positive proof assume anothee point with which it passes now angle in a semicircle is 90

diagonal of rhombus intersect at 90degree hence the pt. with which circle pass should coincide with pt. of intersection

Correct question:-

Prove that the circle drawn with any side of a rhombus as diameter passes through the point of intersection of its diagonals.

______________________________

To prove:

\leadsto A circle drawn with Q as centre, will pass through A, B and O (i.e. QA = QB = QO)

Since all sides of a rhombus are equal,

AB = DC

Now, multiply (½) on both sides

\hookrightarrow (½)AB = (½)DC

\leadsto So, AQ = DP

\hookrightarrow BQ = DP

\leadsto Since Q is the midpoint of AB,

\hookrightarrow AQ= BQ

Similarly,

\hookrightarrow RA = SB

\leadsto Again, as PQ is drawn parallel to AD,

RA = QO

\leadsto Now, as AQ = BQ and RA = QO we have,

\huge\star\boxed{\purple{QA=QB=QO}}
