If bisectors of \(∠A\) and \(∠B\) of a quadrilateral \(ABCD\) intersect each other at \(P\), of \(∠B\) and \(∠C\) at \(Q\), of \(∠C\) and \(∠D\) at \(R\) and of \(∠D\) and \(∠A\) at \(S\). Show that \(PQRS\) is a quadrilateral.
 
Explanation:
 
Given that \(ABCD\) is a quadrilateral and all angles bisectors from a quadrilateral \(PQRS\).

The sum of all angles in a quadrilateral is \(360^°\).
 
Therefore, \(∠A+∠B+∠C+∠D=360^°\)
 
\(\frac{1}{2}(∠A+∠B+∠C+∠D)=\)\(^°\)
 
\(∠PAB+∠PBA+∠RCD+∠RDC=\)\(^°\)           .....(1)
 
In \(△ APB\), by angle sum property,
 
\(∠PAB+∠ABP+∠BPA=180^°\)
 
\(∠PAB−∠ABP=180^°−∠BPA\)          .....(2)
 
Similarly, In \(△ RDC\),
 
\(∠RDC+∠DCR+∠CRD=180^°\)
 
\(∠RDC+∠DCR=180^°−∠CRD\)               .....(3)
 
Substituting (2) and (3) in (1),
 
\(180^°−∠BPA+180^°−∠DRC=180^°\)
 
\(∠BPA+∠DRC=180^°\)
 
\(=180^°\) [\(∠BPA=∠SPQ\) and \(∠DRC=∠SRQ\) are vertically opposite angles]
 
Therefore, \(PQRS\) is a quadrilateral.
