Book IV   Proposition 12
Therefore, BK is equal to CK. And, since FB is equal to FC, and FK common,
    the two sides BF, FK are equal to the two sides CF, FK; and the base BK equal to the base CK;
therefore
    the angle BFK is equal to the angle KFC, [I.8]
and
    the angle BKF to the angle FKC.
Therefore
    the angle BFC is double of the angle KFC, and the angle BKC of the angle FKC.

For the same reason
    the angle CFD is also double of the angle CFL, and the angle DLC of the angle FLC.
