oy i checked it out but i dont get it and i used that first but i still dont get it need explanation

Given AE bis. ∠A, you conclude ∠BAE = ∠DAE ∠BAE = ∠AED ; Alternte Interior/ ‖ lines ∠D + ∠DAE + ∠AED are supplementary. ∠D+ ∠DAE + ∠BAE are supplementary Therefore ∠BAE = ∠D So now you know every angle in △AED is congruent, therefore △AED is equiangular, and therefore equilateral why?
