Question
PQRS is a quadrilateral, PR and QS intersect each other at O. In which of the following case, PQRS is a parallelogram?
OP = 6.5 cm, OQ = 6.5 cm, OR = 5.2 cm, OS = 5.2 cm

Solution
We have a quadrilateral named PQRS, with diagonals PR and QS intersecting at O.
OP = 6.5 cm, OQ = 6.5 cm, OR = 5.2 cm, OS = 5.2 cm
We know that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
But, here we have
OP ≠ OR
And OQ ≠ OS
Therefore,
PQRS is not a parallelogram.
