is cyclic by the Converse of the Inscribed Angle Theorem.
It follows that
as they share the same intercepted arc
- Since
quadrilateral
is cyclic by the supplementary opposite angles.
It follows that
as they share the same intercepted arc
Together, we conclude that by AA, so
Next, we express in terms of
By angle addition, we have
Substituting back gives
