Help with Proofs on quadrilaterals please?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The figure below shows rectangle ABCD. Rectangle ABCD with diagonals AC and BD passing through point E The two-column proof with missing statement proves that the diagonals of the rectangle bisect each other. Statement Reason ABCD is a rectangle. Given Line segment AB and Line segment CD are parallel Definition of a Parallelogram Line segment AD and Line segment BC are parallel Definition of a Parallelogram Alternate interior angles theorem Line segment BC is congruent to line segment AD Definition of a Parallelogram ∡ADB ≅ ∡CBD Alternate interior angles theorem Triangle ADE is congruent to triangle CBE Angle-Side-Angle (ASA) Postulate Line segment BE is congruent to line segment DE CPCTC Line segment AE is congruent to line segment CE CPCTC Line segment ACbisects Line segment BD Definition of a bisector Which statement can be used to fill in the blank space? ∡ABD ≅ ∡DBC ∡CAD ≅ ∡ACB ∡BDA ≅ ∡BDC ∡CAB ≅ ∡ACB

The blank needed filled is for Alternate interior angles theorem I also have a picture

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oops wrong photo sorry about that...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it could be ∡BCA is congruent to ∡CAD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think its CAD ≅ ∡ACB

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well.. Alternate Interior Angles Theorem If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then alternate interior angles are congruent.

what do you think is right?

We have the same idea, if you didn't notice :D
