Proving that the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular

Geometry on Khan Academy: We are surrounded by space. And that space contains lots of things. And these things have shapes. In geometry we are concerned with the nature of these shapes, how we define them, and what they teach us about the world at large--from math to architecture to biology to astronomy (and everything in between). Learning geometry is about more than just taking your medicine ("It's good for you!"), it's at the core of everything that exists--including you. Having said all that, some of the specific topics we'll cover include angles, intersecting lines, right triangles, perimeter, area, volume, circles, triangles, quadrilaterals, analytic geometry, and geometric constructions. Wow. That's a lot. To summarize: it's difficult to imagine any area of math that is more widely used than geometry.

About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps. We've also partnered with institutions like NASA, The Museum of Modern Art, The California Academy of Sciences, and MIT to offer specialized content.

Bro's voice is deeper than the well besides my home 🤣🤣

your amazing i suck at geometry and you showing all these methods are helping a lot thanks thumbs up !

[acevincenti]

You just saved my life. Thanks to you. Kudos Friend.

I have this problem for homework which is exactly like this except it asks is the diagonals are the same length and to prove it. It also asks if one of the diagonals, AC for example, bisects point C (example), how can I prove both of these statements? Keep in mind I am a beginner and I need explanations.

How do you know that angles AEB and CEB are supplementary?

[jttapia]

This is old but can you tell me how to find a side using the length of the bisectors, AC=18 and BD=24 how can you find the sides using them?

[watsupboy]

where were you last week .? LMAO i had a test on dis ...I DID GOOD THOUGH BUT STILL ..

[Gooster]

Wait, the diagonals are perpendicular (all of its angles are 90 degrees) but the diagonals aren't congruent. How so?

[shaiksohail]

oh my god saved me thank u khan academy

[svenclasher]

can you prove how BD bisects AC and that AC bisects BD???? please help. i have a test next week and I don't understand this. Anyone can answer

[infinityU]

If two diagonals of parallelogram are perpendicular to each other then it is a rhombus but why not square

[ilovemathmatics]

why are you talking like jhon cena😂😂😋😂😋😂😂😂
