Answer:

AE = ED///// A MIDPOINT DIVIDES A SEGMENT INTO TWO CONGRUENT SEGMENTS

AB = DC ///// OPPOSITE SIDES OF A RECTANGLE ARE CONGRUENT

<A IS A RIGHT ANGLE ///// THE INTERIOR ANGLES OF A RECTANGLE ARE RIGHT ANGLES

<D IS A RIGHT ANGLE ///// THE INTERIOR ANGLES OF A RECTANGLE ARE RIGHT ANGLES

<A = <D ///// ALL RIGHT ANGLES ARE CONGRUENT

TRIANGLES ABE = DCE ///// SAS

Hope this might help you.
