here, in rectangle ABDC,
AD is a diagonal
so,
in ∆ABD and ∆DCA
AB=DC ( opposite sides of rectangle )
BD=CA ( opposite sides of rectangle )
AD=DA ( common )
so,
∆ABD is congruent to ∆DCA
by SSS

Proved that diagonal of a Rectangle divide it into two triangle congruent to each other
Step-by-step explanation:
Let say ABCD is rectangle
rectangle has all the angles = 90°
=> ∠A = ∠B = ∠C = ∠D = 90°
opposite sides of rectangle are equal
=> AB = CD
& BC = AD
let say Diagonal AC
divides rectangle ABCD in
ΔABC & CDA
AB = CD
∠B = ∠D = 90°
AC = AC ( common)
BC = AD
=> ΔABC ≅ CDA
Now let say Diagonal BD
divides rectangle ABCD in
ΔBAD & DCB
AB = CD
∠A = ∠C = 90°
AC = AC ( common)
AD = BC
=> ΔBAD ≅ DCB
Hence proved diagonal of a Rectangle divide it into two triangle congruent to each other
