| Theorem 2 |
 |
| |
| If the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. |
| |
 |
| |
| |
| ABCD is a quadrilateral in which diagonals AC and BD |
| |
| intersect at O such that AO=OC and BO=OD. |
| |
| |
| ABCD is a parallelogram. |
| |
| |
| |
| In triangles AOB and COD, |
| |
| AO = CO (given) |
| |
| BO = OD (given) |
| |
(vertically opposite angles are equal) |
| |
D AOB D COD (SAS congruency condition) |
| |
|
| |
| Since these are alternate angles made by the transversal AC intersecting AB and CD. |
| |
AB||CD |
| |
| Similarly, AD||BC |
| |
| Hence ABCD is a parallelogram. |
