Statement 1.
\angle BCA\cong\angle DAC.

Reason 1. Alternate interior angles formed when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal are congruent.

Statement 2.
\overline{AC}\cong\overline{AC}.

Reason 2. Reflexive congruence of segments (a segment is congruent to itself).

Statement 3.
\triangle ACD \cong\triangle CAB.

Reason 3. SAS congruence (using our two congruences above and the given congruence).

Statement 4.
\angle ACD=\angle CAB.

Reason 4. Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.

Statement 5.
\overline{AB}\parallel\overline{CD}.

Reason 5. If the alternate interior angles formed when two lines are cut by a transversal are congruent, then the lines are parallel.

Statement 6.
ABCD is a parallelogram.

Reason 6. The quadrilateral satisfies the definition of a parallelogram: a quadrilateral where both pairs of opposite sides are parallel.
