In the figure, the midpoints of the diagonals of a rhombus are joined to form a small quadrilateral:
Kerala Syllabus 8th Standard Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Area of Quadrilaterals 17
i. Prove that this quadrilateral is a rhombus.
ii.The area of the small rhombus is 3 square centimetres. What is the area of the large rhombus?
Solution:
Kerala Syllabus 8th Standard Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Area of Quadrilaterals 18
The diagonals of the rhombus intersect at O and they bisect each other at right angles.
OA = OC
OA2=OC2
OQ = OS
Similarly, since OB = OD
ie., OR = OP
The diagonals of PQRS bisect each other. (Since OQ = OS and OR = OP)
Since the diagonal AC is perpendicular to BD, the diagonals of PQRS are also mutually perpendicular bisectors.
therefore PQRS is a rhombus

ii. Area of quadrilateral PQRS = 3 sq. cm.
