Solution

The correct option is C Rhombus
If ABCD is a rhombus, then in AOB△AOB and COD△COD
AO=COAO=CO, DO=OBDO=OB and AOB=COD∠AOB=∠COD
AOB∴△AOB and COD△COD are congruent.
Again in AOD△AOD and AOB△AOB
AD=ABAD=AB, AO is common and DO=OBDO=OB
<img>
AOD∴△AOD and AOB△AOB are congruent.
bUT AOB△AOB and COD△COD are congruent.
Thus all the four triangles are congruent
So, it is possible only when it is rhombus.
