If non-parallel sides of a trapezium are equal, prove that it is cyclic.
Given ABCD is a trapezium whose non-parallel sides AD and BC are equal.
To prove Trapezium $A B C D$ is a cyclic:
Join $B E$, where $B E \| A D$.
Proof Since, $A B \| D E$ and $A D \| B E$
Since, the quadrilateral $A B E D$ is a parallelogram.
$\therefore$ $\angle B A D=\angle B E D$ $\ldots($ (i)
[opposite angles of a paralleiogram are equal]
and $A D=B E$
[opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal]
But $A D=B C$ [given] ... (iii)
From Eqs. (ii) and (iii), $B C=B E$
$\Rightarrow$ $\angle B E C=\angle B C E$ ...(iv)
[angles opposite to equal sides are equal]
Also, $\angle B E C+\angle B E D=180^{\circ}$ [linear pair axiom]
$\therefore$ $\angle B C E+\angle B A D=180^{\circ}$ [from Eqs. (i) and (iv)]
If sum of opposite angles of a quadrilateral is $180^{\circ}$, then quadrilateral is cyclic.
Hence, trapezium $A B C D$ is a cyclic.
Hence proved.
