Diagonals of a parallelogram intersect each other at point O. If AO = 5, BO = 12 and AB = 13 then show that
The figure is given below:

Given AO =5, BO = 12 and AB = 13
In Δ AOB, AO2 + BO2 = AB2
∵ 52 + 122 = 132
252 + 1442 = 1692
so by the Pythagoras theorem
Δ AOB is right angled at ∠ AOB.
But ∠ AOB + ∠ AOD forms a linear pair so the given parallelogram is rhombus whose diagonal bisects each other at 90°.
