Book I   Proposition 35
(The whole AE is equal to the whole DF)

But
    AB is also equal to DC; [I.34]
therefore
    the two sides EA, AB are equal to the two sides FD, DC respectively,
and
    the angle EAB is equal to the angle FDC, the interior to the exterior; [I.29]

therefore the base EB is equal to the base FC, and
    the triangle EAB
will be equal to
    the triangle FDC. [I.4]
