Here are the Statements and
Reasons:
1) B is midpoint of AC and DL 1) Given
2) AB = CB and DB = LB 2) Definition of a midpoint
3) ∠ABD ≅ ∠CBL 3) Vertical angles
4) ΔADB ≅ Δ CLB 4) SAS

How do you know that ∠ABD and ∠CBL are vertical angles?

If B is the midpoint of both AC and DL then these two segments
intersect at the point B, making the two angles vertical. If there
were a picture, it would be that much easier. I have worked
problems very similar, if not the same, as this one for many
years.
