In rhombus ABCD, AB = BC = CD = DA
Diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other perpendicularly.
That is AC ⊥ BD,
∠AOB=∠BOC=∠COD=∠AOD=90° and
Consider right angled triangle AOB AB2 = OA2 + OB2
[By Pythagoras theorem]
4AB2 = AC2+ BD2
AB2 + AB2 + AB2 + AB2 = AC2+ BD2
∴ AB2 + BC2 + CD2 + DA2 = AC2+ BD2
Thus the sum of the squares of the sides of a rhombus is equal to the sum of the squares of its diagonals.
