let us consider parallelogram ABCD..
DB is a diagonal..
in triangle DBC and triangle ABD
AB =DC since parallelogram property..
BC=AD since same...
DB equals to DB
hence....
diagonal of a parallelogram divides into two congruent triangles...
hope it helps

Statement : A diagonal of a parallelogram divides it into two congruent triangles.
Given : A parallelogram ABCD.
To prove : ΔBAC ≅ ΔDCA
Construction : Draw a diagonal AC.
Proof :
In ΔBAC and ΔDCA,
∠1 = ∠2 [alternate interior angles]
∠3 = ∠4 [alternate interior angles]
AC = AC [common]
ΔBAC ≅ ΔDCA [ASA]
Hence, it is proved.
