Since Angle AED is congruent to angle CFD and angle EDA is congruent to angle FDS, we can use the midpoint theorem to get the following:


\begin{gathered} D\text{ is midpoint of AC} \\ \Rightarrow AD\cong AC \end{gathered}

therefore, by the ASA postulate (angle,side,angle), we have that triangle AED is congruent to triangle CFD
