Answer» option ii is the correct answer Given,ABCD is a quadrilateral in which AB = CD its diagonals AC and BD intersect at O such that OB=OD. To show: (i) ar (DOC) = ar (AOB) (ii) ar (DCB) = ar (ACB) (iii) DA || CB or ABCD is a parallelogram.Construction, DE ⊥ AC andBF ⊥ AC aredrawn. Proof: (i) In ΔDOE and ΔBOF, ∠DEO = ∠BFO (each 90°) ∠DOE = ∠BOF (Vertically opposite angles) OD = OB (Given) Therefore, ΔDOE ≅ΔBOF (by AAScongruence rule) Thus, DE = BF (By CPCT) — (i) also, ar(ΔDOE) = ar(ΔBOF) ........(ii) (Two Congruenttriangles have equal areas) Now, In ΔDEC and ΔBFA, ∠DEC = ∠BFA (each 90°) CD = AB (Given) DE = BF (From i) Therefore,ΔDEC ≅ΔBFA byy RHScongruence rule) Thus, ar(ΔDEC) = ar(ΔBFA) ........(iii) (TwoCongruent triangles have equal areas) Adding (ii) and (iii), ar(ΔDOE)+ ar(ΔDEC) = ar(ΔBOF)+ ar(ΔBFA) ar (DOC) = ar (AOB) (ii)ar(ΔDOC) = ar(ΔAOB) ⇒ar(ΔDOC)+ ar(ΔOCB) = ar(ΔAOB) + ar(ΔOCB) (Addingar(ΔOCB) on both sides) ar(ΔDCB)= ar(ΔACB) (iii)From part (ii) (ΔDCB) & (ΔACB) have all areas and have the same base BC.So, (ΔDCB) & (ΔACB) must lie between the same parallels. DA || BC — (iv) ∠FBO= ∠EDO.....(v) (ΔDOE ≅ ΔBOF ) ∠FBA=∠EDC.....(vi) (ΔDEC ≅ ΔBFA ) On adding eq v & vi ∠ABD=∠CDB Therfore,DC||AB......(vii) From eqiv & vii, We get DA||CB & DC||AB Hence,ABCD is parallelogram . ii) is the correct answer |
