18. Join BC.
Then angle ACB = 90° [Angle in a semi circle]
Since DCBE is a cyclic quad.
angle BCD + angle BED = 180°
Adding angle ACB on both sides
angle BCD + angle BED +angle ACB = angle ACB + 180°
( angle BCD + angle ACB) + angle BED = 90° + 180°
angle ACD + angle BED = 270°

23. Join BC , meeting AD at M.
In ΔDAM and ΔCAM,
AB = AC and ∠RAM = ∠CAM [given]
and AM = AM [common sides]
ΔBAM ≅ ΔCAM [by SAS congruency]
∴ BM = CM
and ∠BMA = ∠CMA [by CPCT] ---- i)
But ∠BMA + ∠CMA = 180° ----- (ii)
From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
∠BMA = ∠CMA = 90°
⇒ AD is the perpendicular bisector of chord BC, but the perpendicular bisector of a chord always passes through the centre of circle.
∴ AD passes through the centre O of circle.
O lies on AD. Hence proved.
