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

Why are plants cut in a diagonal shape while grafting?
The diagonal cut gives a larger cross sectional surface area, hence it is easier for sap to move from one section to the other. Diagonal cut also provides proper bandage to hold the graft.

A diagonal separates the parallelogram into?
Two congruent triangles.. To prove it, use the SSS Postulate.
How many congruent triangles make a parallelogram?
Answer: 2 Explanation: A parallelogram is a quadrilateral which has both pairs of the opposite sides parallel. Congruent triangles are triangles that have exactly the same three sides and exactly the same three angles. So, in a parallelogram, each diagonal divides it in 2 congruent triangles.

How are parallelogram related to triangles and rectangles?
If you draw one diagonal across a parallelogram, it will split it into two congruent triangles. A rectangle is a parallelogram, with all four angles equal to 90°.
In which parallelogram does the diagonal divide the parallelogram into two congruent right triangles?
It is a rhombus because its diagonals meet at right angles.

Why are the diagonals of a parallelogram not congruent?
If you look ate the parallelogram you'll see two kinds of triangles. Two that have longer diagonal and bigger angle, and two sides of parallelogram. Then, you have two triangles that have two sides of parallelogram, shorter diagonal and smaller angle. This triangles obviously have two sides that are the same (sides of parallelogram). If this two triangles had been congruent diagonals would have been congruent too, since these triangles would have been congruent. But this is not true unless angles of parallelogram are the same, therefore diagonals cannot be the same length. Of course, there are parallelograms that have same angles, and those are square and rectangle, which do have the same angles. I hope I made this more clear, and I'm sorry for my bad English.
