  • Question
  • Consider the following statements: 1) An isosceles trapezium is always cyclic. 2) Any cyclic parallelogram is a rectangle. Which of the above statements is/are correct?


  • Options
  • A. 1 only
  • B. 2 only
  • C. Both 1 and 2
  • D. Neither 1 nor 2

  • Correct Answer
  • Both 1 and 2 

    Explanation

    Since it is an isosceles trapezium

    So angle C = angle D = x

    let A = 180 ?D = 180 ?x (since AB is parallel to CD)

    B = 180-x

    A+C = 180 ?x + x = 180 degrees (Property of cyclic quadrilateral)

    ABCD is cyclic parallelogram with AB // CD and AD // BC

    Considering angles A = C = y (Property of parallelogram) and B=D = x Also since it is cyclic A+C = B+D = 180 degrees

    So x=y=90 degrees And also opposite sides are equal being a parallelogram

    Thus ABCD is a rectangle
