Problem

ABCD is a parallelogram whose diagonals AC and BD intersect at O. (i) Prove that △AOB≅△COD\triangle AOB \cong \triangle COD. (ii) From the congruence proved in part (i), identify a new pair of equal sides that involves point O. (iii) Using the equal side obtained in part (ii) together with a suitable angle, prove that △BOC≅△AOD\triangle BOC \cong \triangle AOD. (iv) Hence, state the common numerical relationship among the four segments AO, BO, COAO,\ BO,\ CO and DODO.
