Let ABCD be a square and line AC be its diagonal. We know, in a square all the sides are equal and all the angles are right angled.
So, in ABC and ACD,
AB=CD
angle ABC =angle ADC
AD =BC
So, by SAS congruency both the triangles are equal.

RTP,
Show that a diagonal divides a square into two congruent triangles
Construction:
Join AC
.
proof,
AB = AD
BC = DC
AC = AC
By SSS rule,
Triangle ABC is congruent to triangle ADC.
hope this aided u,
cheers
