Write the name of the diagonals of the following quadrilateral.
Answer:
AC and BD
- A diagonal of a quadrilateral is a line segment joining one vertex of the quadrilateral to the opposite vertex.
- In the given quadrilateral, vertex ^@ A ^@ is opposite to vertex ^@ C ^@ and vertex ^@ B ^@ is opposite to the vertex ^@ D. ^@
Therefore, the line joining vertex ^@ A ^@ to vertex ^@ C ^@ and the line joining vertex ^@ B ^@ to vertex ^@ D ^@ are diagonals of the quadrilateral. - Hence, the line segments ^@ AC ^@ and ^@ BD ^@ are the diagonals of the given quadrilateral.
