Since, it is given that AB=CE, CD=EF.

To Prove: AB = DF

Proof:

CD = EF (Given)

CD+DE = DE+EF (Addition property of Equality)

CE = CD+DE (Segment Addition)

DF = DE+EF

Since, CE = CD+DE and CD+DE = DE+EF and DE+EF = DF

So, CE = DF(Transitive Property of Equality)

Transitive property of Equality states that "If a = b and b = c, then a = c".
