Question

In the middle of the city, there was a park ABCD in the form of a parallelogram form so that AB = CD, AB||CD and AD = BC, AD||BC. Municipality converted this park into a rectangular form by adding land in the form of △APD and △BCQ. Both the triangular shape of land were covered by planting flower plants.

If AB = QR, BC = PR and CA = PQ, then

ABCD is a rectangle and P, Q, R and S are mid-points of the sides AB, BC, CD and DA respectively. Show that the quadrilateral PQRS is a rhombus.

ABCD is a parallelogram and AP and CQ are perpendiculars from vertices A and C on diagonal BD. Show that (i) ∆ APB ≅ ∆ CQD (ii) AP = CQ
