Question

In a quadrilateral ABCD, a line segment BD is a diagonal such that AB=CD and ∠ABD=∠CDB. Are the triangles ABD and CDB congruent? If so, by what rule?

A.

Yes, by SSS

B.

Yes, by SAS

C.

Yes, by ASA

D.

No, they are not congruent

Correct option is B

Given:
AB = CD
∠ABD = ∠CDB
BD is common to both triangles
Formula Used:
SAS (Side–Angle–Side) Congruence Rule:
If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are equal to the corresponding two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
Solution:
Consider triangles ABD and CDB:
AB = CD (Given)
BD = BD (Common side)
∠ABD = ∠CDB (Given)
Thus, two sides and the included angle of triangle ABD are equal to the corresponding parts of triangle CDB.
Therefore, ΔABD ≅ ΔCDB (by SAS rule).
Correct Option: B — Yes, by SAS
