Problem Statement

In the parallelogram ABCDABCD, rays are released from its vertices towards its interior. The rays coming out of the vertices AA{} and DD{} intersect at EE{} and the rays coming out of the vertices BB{} and CC{} at point FF{}. It is known that BAE=BCF\angle BAE=\angle BCF and CDE=CBF\angle CDE = \angle CBF. Prove that ABEFAB \parallel EF.
