उत्तर

Given : //gm ABCD in which AC = BD
To Prove: ABCD is rectangle.
Proof : In ∆ABC and ∆ABD
AB = AB (Common)
AC = BD (Given)
BC = AD (opposite sides of ||gm)
∆ABC = ∆ABD (S.S.S. Rule)
∠A = ∠B
But AD // BC (opp. sides of ||gm are ||)
∠A + ∠B = 180°
∠A = ∠B = 90°
Similarly ∠D = ∠C = 90°
Hence ABCD is a rectangle.
