  1. Join G to F. /_EDF=/_EGF & /_DGE=/_DFE so /_DGF=/_DGE+/_EGF=/_EDF+/_DFE=/_DEB=/_ACB.
    Hence etc.

    Connect GF ( see picture)
    Since quadrilateral GDEF cyclic so m(GDE)=m(GFC)
    Note that m(GDE) supplement to angle(GAC) ( DE//AC)
    So angle(GFC) supplement to angle (GAC)
    And A,G,E,F concyclic

  3. DE//AC ---> angle (BED)=(BCA)
    cyclic quadrilateral DEFG ---> (BED)=(BGF)
    Therefore: angle(BGF)=(BCA).
    Then the quadrilateral AGFC is cyclic.

  4. Join GF
    Angle DGF = angle BED = angle BCA
    So A,G,F,C are concyclic

  5. Triangle BGF ~ Triangle BED ~ Triangle BCA
    BG:BC = BF:BA
    BG.BA = BF.BC
    A, G, F, C are concyclic
