उत्तर

In quadrilateral AECF,
AE = CF ....[from (i)]
AE || CF ....[as AB || DC]
⇒ AECF is a parallelogram.
⇒ EC || AF or EH || GF ....(i)
In quadrilateral BFDE,
BE = DF ....[from (i)]
BE || DF ....[as AB || DC]
⇒ BEDF is a parallelogram
⇒ BF || ED or HF || EG ....(ii)
From (i) and (ii), we get that
EGFH is parallelogram.
