  1. (i) Yes: Diagonals bisecting vertex angles force all opposite sides parallel and adjacent sides equal, creating a rhombus.
    (ii) Yes: Perpendicular bisecting diagonals prove all four sides are congruent through SAS triangle congruences.
    (iii) No: Non-rectangular shapes like isosceles trapeziums have equal diagonals. Extra condition: Add that the diagonals must bisect each other or the quadrilateral must already be a parallelogram.
