Hi!
Here is the answer to your question.
Given: ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral and AD || BC.
To prove: AB = CD
Construction: Draw AE ⊥ BC and DF ⊥ BC.
Proof: AD || BC
∴ ∠ADC + ∠DCF = 180° (sum of adjacent interior angles is 180°)
∠ABE + ∠ADC = 180° (sum of opposite angles of cyclic quadrilateral is 180°)
⇒ ∠ADC + ∠DCF = ∠ABE + ∠ADC
⇒ ∠DCF = ∠ABE
In DABE and DDCF, we have
∠ABE = ∠DCF (proved)
∠AEB = ∠DFC (90°)
AE = DF (distance between the parallel sides is same)
∴ DABE ≅ DDCF (AAS congruence criterion)
⇒ AB = CD (C.P.C.T)
Hope it helps
Thanks
