Given: ABCD is a trapezium in which  \small AB\parallel CD and  \small AD=BC

To prove :\small \Delta ABC\cong \Delta BAD

Proof: In  \small \Delta ABC\, \, and\, \, \, \Delta BAD,

             BC=AD            (Given )

             AB=AB            (Common )

       \angle ABC=\angle BAD              (proved in (i)  )

Thus, \small \Delta ABC\cong \Delta BAD              (By SAS rule)
