Answer» Forthe asked question, we need to draw a rectangle, that is, Consider a rectangle ABCD, Join B and D, similarly join A and C, therefore by joining this Diagonals AC and BD are formed. Now in triangle BAD,BD2= AB2+AD2( by pythagorus theorm.) Similarly in triangle BAC,AC2=BC2+AB2(same reason.) Therefore BC=AD and AB is the commom in both,so AC2=BD2. Which implies that AC =BD. Hence,Proved. |
