Solution

The figure formed by joining the mid-points of the adjacent sides of a rhombus is a rectangle.

Here's the step by step explanation:

  1. Let's consider a rhombus ABCD. Let the mid-points of the sides AB, BC, CD and DA be P, Q, R and S respectively.

  2. Join these mid-points P, Q, R and S.

  3. The figure PQRS formed is a rectangle. This is because the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors of each other.

  4. Therefore, when you join the mid-points of the adjacent sides of a rhombus, you get a rectangle.
