For statement; If a quadrilateral \(A B C D\) is a rhombus then its opposite sides are parallel", its contrapositive and converse are respectively given by

  1. A i. If opposite sides of a quadrilateral \(A B C D\) are not parallel, then quadrilateral \(A B C D\) is a rhombus.
    ii. If opposite sides of a quadrilateral \(A B C D\) are not parallel, then the quadrilateral \(A B C D\) is a rhombus.
  2. B i. If opposite sides of a quadrilateral \(A B C D\) are not parallel then quadrilateral \(A B C D\) is not rhombus.
    ii. If opposite sides of a quadrilateral \(A B C D\) are parallel, then quadrilateral \(A B C D\) is not rhombus.
  3. C i. If opposite sides of a quadrilateral \(A B C D\) are parallel, then quadrilateral \(A B C D\) is not a rhombus.
    ii. If opposite sides of a quadrilateral \(A B C D\) are parallel, then quadrilateral \(A B C D\) is a rhombus.
  4. D i. If opposite sides of a quadrilateral \(A B C D\) are parallel, then quadrilateral \(A B C D\) is not a rhombus.
    ii. If opposite sides of a quadrilateral \(A B C D\) are not parallel, then quadrilateral \(A B C D\) is a rhombus.

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) i. If opposite sides of a quadrilateral \(A B C D\) are parallel, then quadrilateral \(A B C D\) is not a rhombus.
ii. If opposite sides of a quadrilateral \(A B C D\) are parallel, then quadrilateral \(A B C D\) is a rhombus.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Contrapositive of \(p \rightarrow q\) is \(\sim q \rightarrow \sim p\) and converse of \(p \rightarrow q\) is \(q \rightarrow p\) Hence, option (C) is correct
