This is suppose to be a simple question but I can't see the way to get the answer
From Fitzpatrick
27. AB and AC are equal chords of a circle. AD and BE are parallel chords through A and B respectively. Prove that AE is parallel to CD
Basically:
- the blue lines are equal
- the orange lines are parallel
- prove the red lines are parallel
Note: BE is not necessarily a right angle and AE is not necessarily the diameter. They just happen to be like that when I drew it according to the conditions
