Answer
(i) True
(ii) False
Reason — Not all the quadrilateral's diagonals bisect each other, for example : diagonals of trapezium do not bisect each other.
(iii) False
Reason — The diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other at right angle only if it is a rhombus or a square.
(iv) True
(v) False
Reason — The quadrilateral, whose four sides are equal, can be a square or a rhombus.
(vi) True
(vii) False
Reason — Every rhombus is a parallelogram.
(viii) False
Reason — A rhombus with equal diagonals is a square.
(ix) True
(x) False
Reason — If the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other at right angle, then the quadrilateral can be a square or a rhombus.
