Given: ABCD is a quadrilateral. AC and BD intersect at right angles. P, Q, R, S are mid points of respective sides.
In △ABC,
PQ∥AC and PQ=
2
1
AC (By mid point theorem)
In △ADC,
SR∥AC, and SR=
2
1
AC (By mid point theorem)
Therefore, PQ=SR and PQ∥SR
Similarly, PS=RQ and PS∥RQ
hence, PQRS is a parallelogram.
Since, PQ∥AC and QR∥BD
But, AC⊥BD
Hence, PQ⊥QR (Angles between two lines = Angles between their parallels)
Thus, PQRS is a rectangle.
