We have,
ABCD as the given parallelogram in
which diagonal BD bisects ∠B and ∠D.
Since, BD bisects ∠B, then
∠ABD = ∠CBD =
1
2
∠ABC ...
.(1)
Since, BD bisects ∠D, then
∠ADB = ∠CDB =
1
2
∠ADC ...
.(2)
now, ∠ABC = ∠ADC
[Opposite angles of
∥
gm
are equal]
⇒
1
2
∠ABC =
1
2
∠ADC
⇒∠ABD = ∠ADB and ∠CBD =
∠CDB [Using (1) and (2)]
⇒AD = AB and CD = BC
[Angles opposite to equal sides are equal]
.....(3)
Since, ABCD is a parallelogram, then
AB = CD and AD = BC
[Opposite sides of
∥
gm
are equal] ...
..(4)
Now, from (3) and (4), we get
AB = BC = CD = AD
⇒ABCD is a rhombus.
