Detailed Solution

Given,
A quadrilateral = ABCD
Diagonals = AC, BD
Mid points of quadrilateral = P, Q, R, and S.
Question ImageIn the triangle ABC and ADC
From mid-point theorem
2PQ=AC and PQAC…………. (1)
2RS=AC and RSAC…………… (2)
Form the equation (1) and (2)
PQ=RS and PQRS
Also, similarly we have
PS=RQ and PSRQ
PQRS is a parallelogram. So,
PQAC
AOD=PXO=90
Again,
BDRQ
PXO=RQX=90
So, we get,
QRS=RSP=SPQ=90
Here, each angle is equal to 90 degree. So, we can say that PQRS is a rectangle.
Hence the given statement is true.
Correct option is 1.
