Consider the Square $ABCD$. The point $E$ is on the side $CD$. If $F$ is on the side $BC$ such that $AF$ is the bisector of the angle $BAE$. Prove that
$$BF+DE=AE.$$
By Pythagorean theorem we have $(AD)^2+(DE)^2=(AE)^2$ then $DE=sqrt{(AE)^2-(AD)^2}$ also, $DE=AEsin(EAD)$ and $BF=AFsin(BAF)$ on the other hand we have $BAE+EAD=90^0$

Hint: Rotate the $F$ around $A$ for $90^{circ}$ (you get new point name it $H$) and $B$ goes to $D$. Note that $E,D,H$ are collinear. Now use congruence theorems. (Prove that $HE =EA$.)
