Try tangent-secant theorem.

Let BCD = a ECD = CED (base anges of isosceles triangle). Let this = b. Therefore, since BCE = ECD - BCD then BCE = b - a. Also, by exterior angle triangle in triangle AEC: ACE + EAC = CED EAC = a (alternate segment theorem) Therefore ACE = CED - EAC = b - a So ACE = BCE...
