1. **State the problem:** Given points and angles with various congruences and perpendicularities, prove relationships between angles and triangles using geometric theorems.
2. **Given:**
- C is midpoint of AE, so $AC \cong CE$.
- $AE \perp FC$, so $\angle ECF$ is a right angle.
- $\angle A \cong \angle E$, $\angle B \cong \angle D$.
- $\triangle ABC \cong \triangle EDC$ by AAS (Angle-Angle-Side).
- $\angle ACB \cong \angle ECD$.
- $\angle ACB$ and $\angle BCF$ are complementary.
- $\angle ECD$ and $\angle DCF$ are complementary.
- $\angle BCF \cong \angle DCF$.
3. **Use midpoint definition:**
$$AC = CE$$
4. **Use perpendicularity:**
Since $AE \perp FC$, $\angle ECF$ is a right angle, so
$$\angle ECF = 90^\circ$$
5. **Complementary angles:**
If two angles form a right angle, they are complementary:
$$\angle ACB + \angle BCF = 90^\circ$$
$$\angle ECD + \angle DCF = 90^\circ$$
6. **Given $\angle BCF \cong \angle DCF$ and both complementary to $\angle ACB$ and $\angle ECD$ respectively, by the property that if two angles are complements of the same angle (or congruent angles), then they are congruent, we have:**
$$\angle ACB \cong \angle ECD$$
7. **Triangle congruence:**
Given $\triangle ABC \cong \triangle EDC$ by AAS, corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent (CPCTC), confirming all stated angle congruences.
**Final conclusion:** The given conditions and theorems prove the congruences and complementary relationships among the angles and triangles as stated.
