It is given that, B ≅ BC and AD ≅ CD
We need BD perpendicular to AC, then only we can say triangles AXB and CXB are congruent using the HL theorem.
If BD perpendicular to AC, means that AB and CB are the hypotenuse of triangles AXB and CXB respectively.
from the given information ABCD is a square
If BD and AC bisect each other then AX = CX
Then only we can immediately possible to prove that triangles AXD and CXD are congruent by SSS congruence theorem

Answer:
23, 49
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s represent the smaller of the two numbers. Then the larger is s+26, and the sum is ...
s + (s+26) = 72
2s = 72 -26
s = (72 -26)/2 = 23
Then the larger number is
s +26 = 49
The two numbers are 23 and 49.
_____
The reason we wrote the solution this way is to show you that the smaller number is half the difference between the given sum (72) and difference (26). This is the generic solution to a "sum and difference" problem. The smaller number is always half the difference of the give sum and difference. (Similarly, the larger is always half the sum of the given sum and difference.)
That is, the two numbers are always half the sum ± half the difference:
72/2 ± 26/2 = {36+13, 36-13} = {49, 23}
