AC is equal to CE,
the angle EAC is also equal to the angle AEC.
And, since
the angle at C is right,
the remaining angles EAC, AEC are equal to one right angle. [I.32]
And they are equal; therefore
each of the angles CEA, CAE is half a right angle.
For the same reason
each of the angles CEB, EBC is also half a right angle;
therefore
the whole angle AEB is right.
