Solution

Given that AD=BC ......(1)
From the figure,
For triangle ADC and triangle ABD
2GH=AD and 2EF=AD, therefore 2GH=22EF=AD ......(2)
For triangle BCD and triangle ABC
2GF=BC and 2EH=BC, therefore 2GF=2EH=BC .......(3)
From (1),(2),(3) we get,
2GH=2EF=2GF=2EH
GH=EF=GF=EH
Therefore EFGH is a rhombus.
Hence proved
