In the figure below, ∠DEC ≅ ∠DCE, ∠B ≅ ∠F, and segment DF is congruent to segment BD. Point C is the point of intersection between segment AG and segment BD, while point E is the point of intersection between segment AG and segment DF. http://prntscr.com/94ma5u Prove ΔABC ≅ ΔGFE.

I've started this proof about 3 different ways, but none of them make any sense to me.

OpenStudy (leahhhmorgannn):

Like this is one of the ways I tried to do it, but I'm sure if any of it is right for what I'm trying to prove

OpenStudy (leahhhmorgannn):

Okay, just two quick questions about that. It did help a lot, though.

OpenStudy (leahhhmorgannn):

Okay, so is there a theorem or postulate for what happens in these steps? http://prntscr.com/94p0t9 Or what should I state as a reason? I vaguely think there's a postulate/theorem that shows those kinds of relationships, but I can't find it or remember it.
