is a quadrilateral in which , , and are the mid-points of sides , , and respectively. Then is a:
- Atrapezium
- Bparallelogram
- Crectangle
- Dsquare
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
According to Varignon's Theorem, the quadrilateral formed by joining the mid-points of the consecutive sides of any arbitrary quadrilateral is always a parallelogram.
By drawing diagonal , in , and are midpoints, so and (by Midpoint Theorem). Similarly, in , and are midpoints, so and . Thus, and , making a parallelogram.
