Answer:
In a rhombus all sides are equal and diagonals bisect and perpendicular
figure: draw a quadrilateral ABCD with diagonals AC and BD intersecting at O
In triangle DOC,
∠DOC = 90°
applying pythagoras theorem,
DC²=DO²+OC²
DC²=(DB/2)²+(AC/2)²
DC²=DB²/4 + AC²/4 (OPENING THE BRACKET)
4DC²=DB²+AC² ( ALL SIDES R EQUAL)
⇒AB²+BC²+CD²+AD²=DB²+AC²
HENCE PROVED!
