Answer:

Triangle ABD is congruent to Triangle CBD because of ASA

Explanation:

BD bisects Angle ADC --> Given

Angle ADB = Angle CBD --> Def of angle bisector (A)

Side DB = Side DB --> Reflexive Property (S)

Line segment BD is perpendicular to Line segment AC --> Given

Angle DBA = Angle DBC --> Def of perpendicular angles (A)

Triangle ABD congruent to Triangle CBD --> ASA

Using Statement and Reason form, we see that the two triangles are congruent because of the congruency rule: ASA (Angle Side Angle)
