construction draw a parallel line CG of EB extend the line EF.
proof In AEF and CFF
angle1=angle2
AF=FC
angle3=angle4(vertically opposite angle)
aedis congruent to CGF (ASA)
EF=FG(by CPCT)
EA=CG(byCPCT)
BE=CG(parallel)
Therefore BCGE is a parallelogram
BC=EF
BCparallel EG
we know that EG=EF+FG
so we can say that it is 2EF
BC=2EF
1/2BC=EF
hence proved
