giả sử điều phải chứng minh là đúng thì:
\(\dfrac{\left(a+c\right)^2}{\left(a-c\right)^2}=\dfrac{\left(b+d\right)^2}{\left(b-d\right)^2}\\ \Rightarrow\left[\left(a+c\right)\left(b-d\right)\right]^2=\left[\left(a-c\right)\left(b+d\right)\right]^2\\ \Leftrightarrow\left(ab+bc-ad-cd\right)^2=\left(ab+ad-bc-cd\right)^2\\ \Leftrightarrow\left(ab+bc-ad-cd\right)^2-\left(ab+ad-bc-cd\right)^2=0\\ \Leftrightarrow\left(ab+bc-ad-cd+ab+ad-bc-cd\right)\left(ab+bc-ad-cd-ab-ad+bc+cd\right)=0\\ \Leftrightarrow\left(2ab-2cd\right)\left(2bc-2ad\right)=0\\ \Leftrightarrow\left(ab-cd\right)\left(bc-ad\right)=0\\ \Rightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}ab-cd=0\\bc-ad=0\end{matrix}\right.\Leftrightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}ab=cd\\bc=ad\end{matrix}\right.\Leftrightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}\dfrac{a}{c}=\dfrac{d}{b}\\\dfrac{a}{b}=\dfrac{c}{d}\left(đúng\right)\end{matrix}\right.\)
do đó điều phải chứng minh là đúng
