ANSWER
O is the centre.
Given:-OM⊥AB.....(1)
ON⊥CD......(2)
and AB⊥CD.....(3)
⇒AB∣∣ONandCD∣∣DM
from (2) and (3) from (1) and (3)
⇒
MP∣∣ONandPN∣∣OM
(4) (5)
∴OMPN is a parallelogram.
(since opposite side are parallel.)
But angle ∠ONP=90
0
=(Given)
∠NPM=90
0
(Given)
∠NPM=∠NOM [opposite angles of parallelogram]
∴ all angles in the parallelogram are 90
0
∴OMPN is a square or rectangle.
∴ length of perpendicular from centre to equal chords are equal.
⇒ON=OM
adjacent sides of rectangular OMPN are equal.
