Since:


\begin{gathered} AC\cong BC \\ \end{gathered}

We can conclude:


m\angle BAC\cong m\angle ABC

so:

Using triangle sum theorem:


\begin{gathered} m\angle BAC+m\angle ABC+m\angle ACB=180 \\ m\angle ACB=2m\angle ABC \\ m\angle ADC\cong m\angle BDC=(m\angle ACB)/(2) \end{gathered}

Therefore, if 2 angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, the triangles are congruent by Angle-Side-Angle (ASA):


\Delta ADC\cong\Delta BDC
