Solution
Verified by Toppr

Let us draw DN perpendicular to AC and BM perpendicular to AC
In DON and BOM,
DNO=BMO
DON=BOM [vertically opposite angles]
OD=OB [given]
By AAS congruence rule,
DONBOM
DN=BM
Congruent triangles have equal areas
ar(DON)=ar(BOM)
If two triangles have the same base and equal areas, then they will lie between the same parallels.
DA||CB
In DOA and BOC,
DOA=BOC [vertically opposite angles]
OD=OB [given]
ODA=OBC[alternate opposite angles]
By ASA congruence rule,
DOABOC
DA=BC
In quadrilateral ABCD, one pair of opposite sides are equal and parallel
