Based only on the facts in the diagram, you can see that:

  1. BC≅BD (given);
  2. ∠ABC is right, ∠ABD is also right, because these two angles are supplementary and together form the straight angle;
  3. AB is common side.

You have two pairs of congruent sides and a pair of included congruent angles that are adjacent to the congruent sides. So you can use SAS Postulate.

Answer: correct choice is A.
