Theorem: In a square the diagonals are equal and perpendicular to each other.
Given: A square ABCD. To Prove: AC = BD and AC and BC intersect perpendicularly. Proof: In ADB and BCA AD = BC [ Sides of square are equal] DAB = CBA [Each angle is ] AB = AB [ Common] Therfore DAB CBA [SAS Criteria of Congruence] BD = AC As ABCD is a square Therefore it is a parallelogram. Also diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. AO = OC and BO = OD ...................(1) In BOC and COD BO = DO [ From Equation (1)] BC = CD [ Sides of a square] OC = OC [ Common ] Therfore BOC DOC [SSS Criteria of Congruence] [ By CPCT ] ............(2) But [Linear Pair] [Using Eq 2]
Similarly we can prove that Hence Proved that In a square the diagonals are equal and perpendicular to each other. | |
Theorem : If the diagonals of a parallelogram are equal and intersect at right angles, then the parallelogram is a square. | |
Given : ABCD is a parallelogram, such that AC = BD and AC BD To Prove: ABCD is a square Proof: In AOB and COB AO = OC [ Diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other] BO = OB [ Common] AOB = COB [ Each as AC BD] Therefore AOB COB [ SAS Criteria of Congurence] AB = BC [CPCT] As ABCD is a IIgm and the adjacent sides are equal AB = BC Therefore AB = BC = CD= DA. In ADB and BCA AD = BC [ Proved above] BD = AC [Given] AB = AB [ Common] Therfore DAB CBA [SSS Criteria of Congruence] --------(1) [ CPCT] As ABCD is a parallelogram, AD || BC Now AD || BC and AB is the transversal [ Co interior angles are supplementary ] [ Replacing B from equation 1] Now ABCD is a IIgm in which all sides are equal and one angle is .Thus ABCD is a square |
Illustration: If the side of a square ABCD whose diagonals intersect at O is 6cm find the length of OA and OB;
Solution: As the diagonals of a square are equal and bisect each other perpendicularly We can say that OA = OB = x(say) ..............(1) and AOB = AB = 6cm ...................(2) [Given] Now AOB is aright angled at O [By Pythagorous Theorem] Substituting the values from Eq (1) and (2), we get cm Hence OA = OB = cm |

It was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
It has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
I have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
My experience was very good with Abhyas academy. I am studying here from 6th class and I am satisfied by its results in my life. I improved a lot here ahead of school syllabus.
Abhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
About Abhyas metholodology the teachers are very nice and hardworking toward students.The Centre Head Mrs Anu Sethi is also a brilliant teacher.Abhyas has taught me how to overcome problems and has always taken my doubts and suppoeted me.
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
Abhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
