  PS ∥ AD and PS=21​AD        --- ( 1 )    [ By BPT ]
Similarly in △CAD,
  OR ∥ AD and QR=Question Image AD    --- ( 2 )
From ( 1 ) and ( 2 ), we get
   PS ∥ QR  and PS=QR=Question Image​AD         ------ ( 3 )
In △BDC, we get
  SR ∥ BC  and SR=Question Image​BC        ----- ( 4)
And in △ABC
PQ ∥ BC  and PQ=Question ImageBC         ------ ( 5 )
  PQ ∥ SR,  PQ=SR=Question ImageBC      ---- ( 6 )  [ From ( 4 ) and ( 5 ) ]
   □PQRS is a parallelogram.
Now, AD=BC
  Question Image​AD=Question Image​BC
  PS=QR=PQ=SR           [ From ( 3 ) and ( 6 ) ]
   □PQRS is a rhombus.
Hence, as we know rhombus has equal four sides and parallel opposite sides.
We have that parallelogram PQRS is rhombus as all four sides or it are equal Question ImageSo, option 1 is correct.
