(i) It is given that AB and CD are the two chords of a circle
Let the point of intersection be O.
Join AB,BC,CD and AD.
In triangles AOB and COD,
∠AOB=∠COD ...(Vertically opposite angles)
OB=OD ....(O is the mid-point of BD)
OA=OC ....(O is the mid-point of AC)
△AOB≅△COD ....SAS test of congruence
∴AB=CD ....c.s.c.t.
Similarly, we can prove △AOD≅△BOC, then we get
AD=BC ....c.s.c.t.
So, □ABCD is a parallelogram, since opposite sides are equal in length.
So, opposite angles are equal as well.
So, ∠A=∠C
Also, for a cyclic quadrilateral opposite angles add up to 180o
So, ∠A+∠C=180o
∠A+∠A=180o
∠A=90o
So, BD is the diameter. Similarly, AC is also the diameter.
ii) Since AC and BD are diameters,
∴∠A=∠B=∠C=∠D=90o ...Angle inscribed in a semi circle is a right angle
Hence, parallelogram ABCD is a rectangle
