Answer:

Suppose: M, N, P, Q are the midpoints of AB, BC, CD, AD respectively

=> MNPQ is the quadrilateral inside ABCD

connect B to D, ΔABD has : M is the midpoint of AB

                                               Q is the midpoint of AD

=> MQ is the midpoint polygon of ΔABD

=> MQ // BD and MQ = 1/2.BD (1)

ΔBCD has: N is the midpoint of BC

                   P is the midpoint of DC

=> NP is the midpoint polygon of ΔBCD

=> NP // BD and NP = 1/2.BD    (2)

from (1) and (2) => MQ // NP ( //BD)

                             MQ = NP  (=1/2.BD)

=> MNPQ is a parallelogram.​

=>  the quadrilateral inside ABCD is a parallelogram.​

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

All the interior angles are of measure 60 degrees.

We want to find the height of this triangle.  Call it h.  On the left side of this illustration is a right triangle with height h and base (1/2)(10), or 5.

The ratio of height to base is the tangent of 60 degrees:

                                    h

tan 60 degrees = --------------

                                     5

                                                  h

and tan 60 degrees = 1.73  = ------

                                                   5

Multiplying both sides of this equation by 5 yields h = 8.66.  This is |BD|.  This is the same as Answer B.
