Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. Use the property of the isosceles triangle △DBE\triangle DBE.

    Since DB=BEDB = BE (given), △DBE\triangle DBE is an isosceles triangle. In an isosceles triangle, the angles opposite the equal sides are equal.
    Therefore, ∠BDE=∠BED\angle BDE = \angle BED.

  2. Combine angle relationships.

    From Step 1, we have ∠CBE=∠BDE\angle CBE = \angle BDE (tangent-chord theorem).
    From Step 2, we have ∠BDE=∠BED\angle BDE = \angle BED.
    Combining these two equalities, we get ∠CBE=∠BDE=∠BED\angle CBE = \angle BDE = \angle BED.
    Thus, ∠CBE=∠BED\angle CBE = \angle BED.

  3. Prove congruence using Angle-Angle-Side (AAS) criterion.
