let X be the end of line DC
&
Y be the end of line DE

angle XCB = angle CAB

angle YEB = angle EAB

since
angle CAB + angle EAB = 180deg
can conclude
angle XCB + angle YEB = 180deg

&
angle DCB = 180deg - angle XCB
angle DEB = 180deg - angle YEB
so
angle DCB + angle DEB
= 180deg - angle XCB +
180deg - angle YEB

= 360deg - (angle XCB + angle YEB)
= 360deg - (180deg)
= 180deg

this means angle DCB & angle DEB are supplementary (i.e. both add up to 180deg)
&
also, this means angle CDE & angle CBE are supplementary .

these conclude that CDEB is a quadrilateral that is inscribed within circle,
i.e. CSEB is cyclic quadrilateral
