are being used to get the equation in step 6.

are being used to get the equation in step 8.

are being used to get the equation in step 9.

In step 14, "similar argument" means to draw segment and follow the same logic in steps 3-12.

By a similar argument used to prove that △AEB ≅ △CED, we can show that △ ≅ △CEB by. So, ∠CAD ≅ ∠ by CPCTC. Therefore, AD || BC by the converse of the theorem. Since both pair of opposite sides are parallel, quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram.

Determine the value of x that would make quadrilateral LMNO a parallelogram.
