The diagonals are AC and BD
Let the diagonals bisect each other at O.
In ΔAOBandΔAOD
OA=OA (common)
OB=OD (given the bisect)
∠AOB=∠AOD (each 900)
∴ΔAOB≅ΔAOD (SAS criteria)
The corresponding parts are equal.
AB=AD
Similarly, AB=BC
BC=CD
CD=AD
∴AB=BC=CD=DA
i.e. the quadrilateral is a Rhombus

Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonals are AC and BD
Let the diagonals bisect each other at O.
In ΔAOBandΔAOD
OA=OA (common)
OB=OD (given the bisect)
∠AOB=∠AOD (each 90° )
∴ΔAOB≅ΔAOD (SAS criteria)
The corresponding parts are equal.
AB=AD
Similarly, AB=BC
BC=CD
CD=AD
∴AB=BC=CD=DA
i.e. the quadrilateral is a Rhombus
