उत्तर


We know that the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors of each other

∴ OA = OC

OB = OD

∠AOD = ∠COD = 90°

And ∠AOB = ∠COB = 90°

In ΔBDE, A and O are midpoints of BE and BD, respectively

OA || DE

OC || DG

In ΔCFA, B and O are midpoints of AF and AC, respectively

∴ OB || CF

OD || GC

Thus, in quadrilateral DOCG, we have

OC || DG and OD || GC

⇒ DOCG is a parallelogram

∠DGC = ∠DOC

∠DGC = 90°
