Let ABCD be a square. Let the diagonals AC and BD intersect each other at a point O. To prove that the diagonals of a square are equal and bisect each other at right angles, we have to prove AC = BD, OA = OC, OB = OD, and AOB = 90º.
In ABC and DCB,
AB = DC (Sides of a square are equal to each other)
ABC = DCB (All interior angles are of 90)
BC = CB (Common side)
ABC = DCB (By SAS congruency)
AC = DB (By CPCT)
the diagonals of a square are equal in length.

GIVEN:
SQUARE ABCD
DIAGONALS AC AND BD
TO PROVE:
AC= BD
PROOF:
IN TRIANGLES BAD AND ABC
AB = AB (COMMON)
AD = BC (ALL SIDES IN A SQUARE ARE EQUAL)
ANGLE BAD = ANGLE ABC (VERTEX ANGLES, SO EQUAL)
BY SAS, TRIANGLE BAD IS CONGRUENT TO TRIANGLE ABC
BY CPCT, AC = BD
