Book III   Proposition 22
But
    the angle CAB is equal to the angle BDC, for they are in the same segment BADC; [III. 21]
and
    the angle ACB is equal to the angle ADB, for they are in the same segment ADCB; [III. 21]
therefore
    the whole angle ADC is equal to the angles BAC, ACB.

Let
    the angle ABC be added to each;
therefore
    the angles ABC, BAC, ACB are equal to the angles ABC, ADC.
