Answer:
" The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent" means diagonals of a rectangle are same in length. All the properties of a parallelogram apply (the ones that matter here are parallel sides, opposite sides are congruent, and diagonals bisect each other). All angles are right angles by definition.

that the diagonals of a rectangle are congruent is to show that triangle ABC is congruent to triangle DCB
Here is what is given: Rectangle ABCD
Here is what you need to prove: segment AC ≅ segment BD
Since ABCD is a rectangle, it is also a parallelogram.
Since ABCD is a parallelogram, segment AB ≅ segment DC because opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent.
BC ≅ BC by the Reflexive Property of Congruence.
Furthermore, ∠ABC and ∠DCB are right angles by the definition of rectangle.
∠ABC ≅ ∠DCB since all right angles are congruent.
