Explanation:

Step1: Identify ABCD as rhombus

Since $ABCD$ is a parallelogram with $\overline{AD} \cong \overline{CD}$, all sides are congruent: $\overline{AB} \cong \overline{BC} \cong \overline{CD} \cong \overline{AD}$.

Step2: Prove $\triangle ABC$ is isosceles

$\overline{AB} \cong \overline{BC}$, so $\triangle ABC$ is isosceles.

Step3: Use angle bisector property

$\overline{BD}$ bisects $\angle ABC$. In an isosceles triangle, the angle bisector of the vertex angle is perpendicular to the base.

Step4: Conclude perpendicularity

Thus, $\overline{AC} \perp \overline{BD}$.

Answer:

$\overline{AC} \perp \overline{BD}$ is proven. The missing statement to advance the proof (aligning with the dropdown context) leads to establishing $ABCD$ is a rhombus, whose diagonals are perpendicular.
