Solution
The correct option is B Rectangle PB and SB are the respective angle bisectors of ∠P and ∠S, In any quadrilateral the angle bisectors intersect at right angles. Thus, in △PBS, ∠PBS = 90∘ or, ∠ABC = ∠PBS = 90∘ (vertically opposite angles) Similarly, ∠ADC = ∠DCB = ∠BAD = 90∘ Since all angles of parallelogram ABCD are 90°, ABCD is a rectangle.
