P, Q , R and S are respectively the mid-points of the sides AB, BC, CD and DA of a quadrilateral ABCD in which AC = BD. Prove that PQRS is a rhombus.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To prove that quadrilateral PQRS is a rhombus, we need to show that its opposite sides are equal in length and that its diagonals bisect each other at right angles. Given that P, Q, R, and S are the midpoints of sides AB, BC, CD, and DA of quadrilateral ABCD, and that AC = BD, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Midpoints**: Let P, Q, R, and S be the midpoints of sides AB, BC, CD, and DA respectively. 2. **Use the Midpoint Theorem**: ...
