Draw line AD and DC such that AB \parallel CD and AD \parallel BC.

    AD= BC and AB= CD

ABCD is a rectangle as it has opposite sides equal and parallel.

All angles of rectangle are 90\degree and rectangle has two diagonals equal and bisect each other.

Hence, AO = BO = CO = DO

\therefore O is equidistant from A,B,C,D.
