Detailed Solution

Let the length of the each side of the rhombus be a units.

Question Image

Let the coordinates of B be x1,4x13.

Clearly, CM = OL = x1..

So, the coordinates of A are a+x1,4x13

Now, OB = BA = AC = OC = a

OB2=a2

x12+16x129=a225x12=9a2a=5x13

So, the coordinates of C are 5x13,0.

Now, B; D, C are collinear. Therefore, 
Slope of BD= Slope of DC

234x1323x1=23O235x1324x123x1=225x1

418x1+20x21=46x1

20x1212x1=04x15x13=0

x1=35x10a=1

Thus, the coordinates of A, B and C are:

A85,45,B35,45 and C(1,0)

The equation of BC is y45=045135x35 or 2x+y=2
