Exercise 8.1
1. The angles of a quadrilateral are in the ratio 3:5:9:13. Find all the angles of the quadrilateral.
Solution:
Let the common ratio between the angles be = x.
We know that the sum of the interior angles of the quadrilateral = 360°
Now,
3x+5x+9x+13x = 360°
⇒ 30x = 360°
⇒ x = 12°
Angles of the quadrilateral are:
3x = 3×12° = 36°
5x = 5×12° = 60°
9x = 9×12° = 108°
13x = 13×12° = 156°
2. If the diagonals of a parallelogram are equal, then show that it is a rectangle.
Solution:
AC = BD
To show that ABCD is a rectangle if the diagonals of a parallelogram are equal.
To show ABCD is a rectangle, we have to prove that one of its interior angles is right angled.
Proof,
In ΔABC and ΔBAD,
AB = BA (Common)
BC = AD (Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal)
AC = BD (Given)
Therefore, ΔABC ≅ ΔBAD [SSS congruency]
∠A = ∠B [Corresponding parts of Congruent Triangles]
also,
∠A+∠B = 180° (Sum of the angles on the same side of the transversal)
⇒ 2∠A = 180°
⇒ ∠A = 90° = ∠B
Therefore, ABCD is a rectangle.
Hence Proved.
3. Show that if the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other at right angles, then it is a rhombus.
Solution:-
Given that,
OA = OC
OB = OD
and ∠AOB = ∠BOC = ∠OCD = ∠ODA = 90°
To show that if the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other at right angles, then it is a rhombus.
i.e., we have to prove that ABCD is a parallelogram and AB = BC = CD = AD
Proof,
In ΔAOB and ΔCOB,
OA = OC (Given)
∠AOB = ∠COB (Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal)
OB = OB (Common)
Therefore, ΔAOB ≅ ΔCOB [SAS congruency]
Thus, AB = BC [CPCT]
Similarly, we can prove,
BC = CD
CD = AD
AD = AB
AB = BC = CD = AD
Opposite sides of a quadrilateral are equal; hence ABCD is a parallelogram.
ABCD is rhombus as it is a parallelogram whose diagonals intersect at the right angle.
Hence Proved.
4. Show that the diagonals of a square are equal and bisect each other at right angles.
Solution:
Let ABCD be a square and its diagonals AC and BD intersect each other at O.
To show that,
AC = BD
AO = OC
and ∠AOB = 90°
Proof,
In ΔABC and ΔBAD,
AB = BA (Common)
∠ABC = ∠BAD = 90°
BC = AD (Given)
ΔABC ≅ ΔBAD [SAS congruency]
Thus,
AC = BD [CPCT]
diagonals are equal.
Now,
In ΔAOB and ΔCOD,
∠BAO = ∠DCO (Alternate interior angles)
∠AOB = ∠COD (Vertically opposite)
AB = CD (Given)
ΔAOB ≅ ΔCOD [AAS congruency]
Thus,
AO = CO [CPCT].
Diagonal bisect each other.
Now,
In ΔAOB and ΔCOB,
OB = OB (Given)
AO = CO (diagonals are bisected)
AB = CB (Sides of the square)
ΔAOB ≅ ΔCOB [SSS congruency]
Also, ∠AOB = ∠COB
∠AOB+∠COB = 180° (Linear pair)
Thus, ∠AOB = ∠COB = 90°
Diagonals bisect each other at right angles
5. Show that if the diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal and bisect each other at right angles, then it is a square.
Solution:
Given that,
Let ABCD be a quadrilateral and its diagonals AC and BD bisect each other at the right angle at O.
To prove that,
The Quadrilateral ABCD is a square.
Proof,
In ΔAOB and ΔCOD,
AO = CO (Diagonals bisect each other)
∠AOB = ∠COD (Vertically opposite)
OB = OD (Diagonals bisect each other)
ΔAOB ≅ ΔCOD [SAS congruency]
Thus,
AB = CD [CPCT] — (i)
also,
∠OAB = ∠OCD (Alternate interior angles)
⇒ AB || CD
Now,
In ΔAOD and ΔCOD,
AO = CO (Diagonals bisect each other)
∠AOD = ∠COD (Vertically opposite)
OD = OD (Common)
ΔAOD ≅ ΔCOD [SAS congruency]
Thus,
AD = CD [CPCT] — (ii)
also,
AD = BC and AD = CD
⇒ AD = BC = CD = AB — (ii)
also, ∠ADC = ∠BCD [CPCT]
and ∠ADC+∠BCD = 180° (co-interior angles)
⇒ 2∠ADC = 180°
⇒∠ADC = 90° — (iii)
One of the interior angles is a right angle.
Thus, from (i), (ii) and (iii), given quadrilateral ABCD is a square.
Hence Proved.
6. Diagonal AC of a parallelogram ABCD bisects ∠A . Show that
(i) it bisects ∠C
(ii) ABCD is a rhombus.
Solution:
(i) In ΔADC and ΔCBA,
AD = CB (Opposite sides of a parallelogram)
DC = BA (Opposite sides of a parallelogram)
AC = CA (Common Side)
ΔADC ≅ ΔCBA [SSS congruency]
Thus,
∠ACD = ∠CAB (by CPCT)
and ∠CAB = ∠CAD (Given)
⇒ ∠ACD = ∠BCA
Thus,
AC bisects ∠C also.
(ii) ∠ACD = ∠CAD (Proved above)
⇒ AD = CD (Opposite sides of equal angles of a triangle are equal)
Also, AB = BC = CD = DA (Opposite sides of a parallelogram)
Thus,
ABCD is a rhombus.
7. ABCD is a rhombus. Show that diagonal AC bisects ∠A as well as ∠C, and diagonal BD bisects ∠B and ∠D.
Solution:
Given that,
ABCD is a rhombus.
AC and BD are its diagonals.
Proof,
AD = CD (Sides of a rhombus)
∠DAC = ∠DCA (Angles opposite of equal sides of a triangle are equal.)
Also, AB || CD
⇒∠DAC = ∠BCA (Alternate interior angles)
⇒∠DCA = ∠BCA, AC bisects ∠C.
Similarly,
We can prove that diagonal AC bisects ∠A.
Following the same method,
We can prove that the diagonal BD bisects ∠B and ∠D.
8. ABCD is a rectangle in which diagonal AC bisects ∠A as well as ∠C. Show that:
(i) ABCD is a square
(ii) Diagonal BD bisects ∠B as well as ∠D.
Solution:
(i) ∠DAC = ∠DCA (AC bisects ∠A as well as ∠C)
⇒ AD = CD (Sides opposite to equal angles of a triangle are equal)
Also, CD = AB (Opposite sides of a rectangle), AB = BC = CD = AD
Thus, ABCD is a square.
(ii) In ΔBCD,
BC = CD
⇒ ∠CDB = ∠CBD (Angles opposite to equal sides are equal)
Also, ∠CDB = ∠ABD (Alternate interior angles)
⇒ ∠CBD = ∠ABD
Thus, BD bisects ∠B
Now,
∠CBD = ∠ADB
⇒ ∠CDB = ∠ADB
Thus, BD bisects ∠B as well as ∠D.
9. In parallelogram ABCD, two points, P and Q, are taken on diagonal BD such that DP = BQ . Show that:
(i) ΔAPD ≅ ΔCQB
(ii) AP = CQ
(iii) ΔAQB ≅ ΔCPD
(iv) AQ = CP
(v) APCQ is a parallelogram
Solution:
(i) In ΔAPD and ΔCQB,
DP = BQ (Given)
∠ADP = ∠CBQ (Alternate interior angles)
AD = BC (Opposite sides of a parallelogram)
Thus, ΔAPD ≅ ΔCQB [SAS congruency]
(ii) AP = CQ by CPCT as ΔAPD ≅ ΔCQB.
(iii) In ΔAQB and ΔCPD,
BQ = DP (Given)
∠ABQ = ∠CDP (Alternate interior angles)
AB = CD (Opposite sides of a parallelogram)
Thus, ΔAQB ≅ ΔCPD [SAS congruency]
(iv) As ΔAQB ≅ ΔCPD
AQ = CP [CPCT]
(v) From questions (ii) and (iv), it is clear that APCQ has equal opposite sides and also has equal and opposite angles. Hence, APCQ is a parallelogram.

(i) ΔAPB ≅ ΔCQD
(ii) AP = CQ
Ncert solutions class 9 chapter 8-9
Solution:
(i) In ΔAPB and ΔCQD,
∠ABP = ∠CDQ (Alternate interior angles)
∠APB = ∠CQD (= 90o as AP and CQ are perpendiculars)
AB = CD (ABCD is a parallelogram), ΔAPB ≅ ΔCQD [AAS congruency]
(ii) As ΔAPB ≅ ΔCQD, AP = CQ [CPCT]
11. In ΔABC and ΔDEF, AB = DE, AB || DE, BC = EF and BC || EF. Vertices A, B and C are joined to vertices D, E and F, respectively (see Fig. 8.22).

(iv) quadrilateral ACFD is a parallelogram
(v) AC = DF
(vi) ΔABC ≅ ΔDEF.
Ncert solutions class 9 chapter 8-10
Solution:
(i) AB = DE and AB || DE (Given)
Two opposite sides of a quadrilateral are equal and parallel to each other.
Thus, quadrilateral ABED is a parallelogram
(ii) Again BC = EF and BC || EF.
Thus, quadrilateral BEFC is a parallelogram.
(iii) Since ABED and BEFC are parallelograms.
⇒ AD = BE and BE = CF (Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal), AD = CF.
Also, AD || BE and BE || CF (Opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel), AD || CF
(iv) AD and CF are opposite sides of quadrilateral ACFD which are equal and parallel to each other. Thus, it is a parallelogram.
(v) Since ACFD is a parallelogram
AC || DF and AC = DF
(vi) In ΔABC and ΔDEF,
AB = DE (Given)
BC = EF (Given)
AC = DF (Opposite sides of a parallelogram), ΔABC ≅ ΔDEF [SSS congruency]
