Congruent triangles are two or more triangles with the same length of sides and measure of internal angles. Thus the required proof is as shown below:

From the given diagram, it can be observed that:

AB = AC (similar property of two lines)

AC = AE (similar property of two lines)

Also,

m<A is a common angle to ΔABC and ΔADE

So that it can be concluded that;

ΔABC ≅ ΔADE (Side-Angle-Side property)

Thus since ΔABC ≅ ΔADE are congruent, then;

BC = DE (corresponding sides of congruent triangles)

See below for the proof that sides BC and DE are congruent

How to prove the side lengths?

The given parameters are:

AC = AE

AB = AD

∠BAD = ∠EAC

By the definition of congruence, side lengths marked with I are congruent and side lengths marked with II are congruent

From the attached figure, we have the following marks:

In triangle ABC,

AB = I and AC = II

In triangle ADE,

AD = I and AE = II

This means that two corresponding sides of ABC and ADE are congruent.

Since both triangles have a congruent angle, then the last corresponding sides are also congruent

i.e. BC = DE

Hence, sides BC and DE are congruent
