Answer variants:
OW=OW
WOX=ZOW
Using CPCT
WOX=WZO
OX=ZW
All the sides of a parallelogram are equal
All the sides of a rhombus are equal
ΔWOXΔZOW
Using parallelogram property
ΔWOXΔWZO
Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal
WOX+ZOW=180°
Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other
WOX+WZO=180°
Show that the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular to each other.

S. No.
Statement
Reason
1.
\(WXYZ\) is a parallelogram.
Rhombus is also a parallelogram.
2.
OX=OZ
3.
Common side
4.
WX=ZW
5.
\(SSS\) Congruence rule
6.
CPCT
