Does the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect the angles?
No, the diagonals of a parallelogram do not necessarily bisect the angles. The diagonals of a parallelogram divide it into four congruent triangles, but they do not necessarily bisect the angles of those triangles.
How can you used a triangle to prove quadrilateral is a parallelogram?
A quadrilateral, in general, is not a parallelogram. If it is a parallelogram then you will have some additional information about its sides and angles. If you do not have such information it is not possible to prove that it is a parallelogram. Draw a diagonal which will divide the quadrilateral into two triangles and use the additional information that you have to show that the triangles are congruent. This can then be used to show equality of sides or of angles: the latter can then be used to show that sides are parallel. Note that the choice of which diagonal may influence how (if at all) you proceed.
If you want to divide triangles into parallelogram how many triangles can you cut from parallelogram?
You can get 2 triangles by cutting a parallelogram in half
Are square diagonals divide it into congruent triangles?
Yes
How do you divide a square into 2 triangles and 2 trapezoids?
By cutting through its diagonal and cutting off each corner parallel to its diagonal which will leave you with 2 triangles and 2 trapezoids.

Does a diagonal of a parralelogram divide a parallelogram into two congruent triangles?
Yes, the diagonal splits the parallelogram into two equal triangle aka congruent the sides will stay the same, the two angles being divided are going to be split in half, one on each side, so its the same

Can you divide trapezioid into two congruent triangles?
A trapezoid can be divided into 2 triangles but they are not normally congruent to each other.
Can you divide a trapezium into two congruent triangles?
No, you cannot.
Are square diagonals divide it into congruent triangles?
Yes
Why do you think that diagonals bisect each other for proving that a quadrilateral is a parallelogram?
The diagonals divide the quadrilateral into four sections. You can then use the bisection to prove that opposite triangles are congruent (SAS). That can then enable you to show that the alternate angles at the ends of the diagonal are equal and that shows one pair of sides is parallel. Repeat the process with the other pair of triangles to show that the second pair of sides is parallel. A quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel lines is a parallelogram.
A diagonal will divide a quadrilateral into two of what figure?
Two triangles
