उत्तर

Let, the median side drawn from point D intersects EF at point M.

Point G is the concurrence point.

The concurrence point divides each median in the ratio 2:1.

∴ DG : GM = 2 : 1

∴ `("DG")/("GM") = 2/1`

∴ DG = 2GM      ...(i)

∴ DG = GM + MH      ...(G-M-H)

∴ 2GM = GM + MH    ...[from (i)]

∴ 2GM – GM = MH

∴ GM = MH      ...(ii)

In `square`GEHF,

Line GM ≅ Line MH      ...[From (ii)]

Line EM ≅ Line MF       ...(Point M is the midpoint of line EF)

A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if its diagonals bisect each other.

`square`GEHF is a parallelogram.
