In the context of proving that the diagonals of rectangle ABCD are congruent, after stating that \( AD \cong BC \), \( AB \cong AB \), and \( \angle DAB \cong \angle CBA \), we can use the criteria for triangle congruence.

The appropriate statement that follows would be:

**△DAB≅△CBA**

This is because we are showing that triangles DAB and CBA are congruent by using the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) congruence criteria. Once we establish that these triangles are congruent, it logically leads to the conclusion that \( AC \cong BD \), which confirms that the diagonals are congruent.

Thus, the correct response is:

**△DAB≅△CBA** (triangle upper A upper O upper B congruent to triangle upper D upper O upper C)
