Problem
Bao wants to prove that if parallelogram [ABCD] has a right angle, then its diagonals are congruent.
[A][B][C][D][E]
Bao says: "I can prove this using the fact that opposite sides in a parallelogram are congruent, and by establishing the congruence of a single pair of triangles."
Which pair of triangles is Bao referring to, and which criterion should he use for establishing congruence?
