Assumption
QWER be a rhombus
Then,
QW = WE = ER = RQ
Now,
In ∆QKR and ∆EKR
KQ = KE (Diagonal of ||gm and rhombus bisect each other)
KR = KR (Common)
QR = ER (Given)
Hence,
∆QKR ≅ ∆EKR (SSS rule)
∠QKR = ∠EKR (CPCT)
But,
∠QKR + ∠EKR = 180° (Linear Pair)
2∠QKR = 180°
∠QKR = 90
Hence,
Diagonal of a rhombus are perpendicular to each other
