To prove :  quadrilateral ACFD is a parallelogram

Proof : 

In ABED,

 AD=BE.................1(ABED is a parallelogram)    

 AD||BE .................2(ABED is a parallelogram)      

In BEFC,

 BE=CF.................3(BEFC is a parallelogram)    

 BE||CF .................4(BEFC is a parallelogram)      

From 2 and 4 , we get

   AD||CF...........................5

From 1 and 3, we get

   AD=CF...........................6

From 5 and 6, we get

 AD||CF and AD=CF

Thus, quadrilateral ACFD is a parallelogram
