Given that,
[tex]\sf \: AB \: \parallel \:DE \: and \: AB = DE \\ \\ [/tex]
We know,
In a quadrilateral, if one pair of opposite sides are equal and parallel, then quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
[tex]\sf\implies \bf \: ABED \: is \: a \: parallelogram. \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\sf\implies\sf \: AD\: \parallel \:BE \: \: and \: \: AD = BE - - - (1) \\ \\ [/tex]
Further given that,
[tex]\sf \: BC\: \parallel \:EF \: and \: BC = EF \\ \\ [/tex]
We know,
In a quadrilateral, if one pair of opposite sides are equal and parallel, then quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
[tex]\sf\implies \bf \: BEFC \: is \: a \: parallelogram. \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\sf\implies \sf \: BE\: \parallel \:CF \: \: and \: \: BE = CF - - - (2) \\ \\ [/tex]
From equation (1) and (2), we concluded that
[tex]\sf\implies \bf \: AD\: \parallel \:CF \: \: and \: \: AD = CF \\ \\ [/tex]
We know,
In a quadrilateral, if one pair of opposite sides are equal and parallel, then quadrilateral is a parallelogram.
[tex]\sf\implies \bf \: ACFD \: is \: a \: parallelogram. \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\sf\implies \sf \: AC\: \parallel \:DF \: \: and \: \: AC = DF \\ \\ [/tex]
Now,
[tex]\sf \: In \: \triangle \: ABC \: and \: \triangle \: DEF \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\qquad\sf \: AB = DE \: \: \: \: \{given \} \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\qquad\sf \: BC = EF \: \: \: \: \{given \} \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\qquad\sf \: AC = DF \: \: \: \: \{proved \: above \} \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\sf\implies \bf \: \triangle \: ABC \: \cong \: \triangle \: DEF \: \: \: \{SSS \: Congruency \: rule \} \\ \\ [/tex]

(i) Quadrilateral ABED is a parallelogram
[tex] \; \star \; {\underline{\boxed{\pmb{\orange{\frak{ \; solution \; :- }}}}}}[/tex]
We have ,
[tex] \large\sf \implies[/tex] AB = DE (given) and
[tex] \large\sf \implies[/tex] AB || DE ( given)
ABED is a Quadrilateral in which a pair of opposite sides that are AB and DE are parallel and of equal length
Therefore, ABED is a parallelogram
[tex]\rule{200pt}{4pt}[/tex]
(ii) Quadrilateral BEFC is a parallelogram
[tex] \; \star \; {\underline{\boxed{\pmb{\orange{\frak{ \; solution\; :- }}}}}}[/tex]
We have ,
[tex] \large\sf\implies[/tex] BC = EF (given) and
[tex] \large\sf\implies[/tex] BC || EF ( given)
BEFC is a Quadrilateral in which a pair of opposite sides that are BC and EF are parallel and of equal length
Therefore, BEFC is a parallelogram
[tex]\rule{200pt}{4pt}[/tex]
(iii) AD || CF and AD = CF
[tex] \; \star \; {\underline{\boxed{\pmb{\orange{\frak{ \; solution \; :- }}}}}}[/tex]
ABED is a parallelogram
Therefore,
[tex] \large\sf \implies[/tex] AD || BE and AD = BE... (1)
Also, BEFC is a parallelogram
Therefore,
[tex] \large\sf \implies[/tex] BE || FC and BE = FC... (2)
From (1) and (2) , we have
AD || CF and AD = CF
[tex]\rule{200pt}{4pt}[/tex]
(iv) Quadrilateral AFCD is a parallelogram
[tex] \; \star \; {\underline{\boxed{\pmb{\orange{\frak{ \; solution \; :- }}}}}} [/tex]
In Quadrilateral AFCD , one pair of opposite sides (AD and CF as proved above) are parallel and of equal length
Therefore, Quadrilateral AFCD is a parallelogram
[tex]\rule{200pt}{4pt}[/tex]
(v) AC = DF
[tex] \; \star \; {\underline{\boxed{\pmb{\orange{\frak{ \; solution \; :- }}}}}} [/tex]
Since , AFCD is a parallelogram
So, AC = DF (because these are opposite sides of parallelogram)
[tex]\rule{200pt}{4pt}[/tex]
(vi) ∆ABC = ∆DEF
[tex] \; \star \; {\underline{\boxed{\pmb{\orange{\frak{ \; solution \; :- }}}}}}[/tex]
In ∆ABC and ∆DEF
AB = DE
BC = EF
AC = DE
Therefore, ∆ABC = ∆DEF
