Ans: D
According to the question, we draw the parallelogram first.

I is true. Since $ABCD$ is a parallelogram, then $AD//BC$.

In $\Delta EBD$,

$\angle BDA = \angle DBC$ (alt. $\angle$s, $AD//DC$)

$\therefore EB=ED$ (sides opp. eq. $\angle$s)

In $\Delta EBA$,

$ED = EA$ ($E$ is the mid-pt of $AD$)

$\therefore EA = EB$.

Hence, we have $\angle EAB = \angle EBA$ (base $\angle$s, isos. $\Delta$).

In $\Delta BAD$,

$\because \angle BAD = \angle ABE$, $\angle ABE = \angle CBD$ and $\angle CBD = \angle BDE$,

$\therefore \angle BAD = \angle BDA$.

$\therefore AB = BD$ (sides opp. eq. $\angle$s).

II is true. Since $\angle ABE = \angle DBE = \angle CBD = \angle BAD$ and $AD//BC$, we have

$\begin{array}{rcll}
\angle BAD + \angle ABC & = & 180^\circ & \text{(int. $\angle$s, $AD//BC$)} \\
\angle BAD + \angle ABE + \angle DBE + \angle CBD& = & 180^\circ \\
4\angle ABE & = & 180^\circ \\
\angle ABE & = & 45^\circ \\
\end{array}$

Therefore, we have

$\begin{array}{rcl}
\angle ABC & = & 3 \times \angle ABE \\
& = & 3 \times 45^\circ \\
& = & 135^\circ
\end{array}$

III is true. In $\Delta ABE$ and $\Delta DBE$,

$\begin{array}{rcll}
BE & = & BE & \text{(common side)} \\
AB & = & DB & \text{(proved)} \\
AE & = & DE & \text{($E$ is the mid-pt of $AD$)}
\end{array}$

$\therefore \Delta ABD \cong \Delta DBE$ (S.S.S.).
