Exercise 56 Page 382

â–ł ADC and and â–ł ABC share the same side AC.

△ ADC≅ △ ABC

Practice makes perfect
Let's begin by placing the given angle measures on the figure.

Notice that △ ADC and and △ ABC share the same side AC. In this case, two angles and the non-included side of △ ADC are congruent to two angles and the non-included side of △ ABC. Thus, △ ADC≅ △ ABC by the Angle-Angle-Side Theorem.
