Question
In the given figure, prove that:
(i) ∆ ACB ≅ ∆ ECD
(ii) AB = ED

Solution
(i) In Δ ACB and Δ ECD,
AC = CE ................(given)
∠ACB = ∠DCE ............(vertically opposite angles)
BC = CD .............(given)
∴ Δ ACB ≅ Δ ECD ..............(S.A.S. Axiom)
(ii) Hence AB = ED ................(c.p.c.t.)
Hence proved.
