Prove that △ACD\triangle ACD is similar to △BCA\triangle BCA .
Solution:  
In △ACD\triangle ACD and △BCA\triangle BCA
∠C  =∠C       (common)   \angle C\;=\angle C\;\;\;\text{ (common) }\;
∠ABC  =∠DAC       (given)   \angle ABC\;=\angle DAC\;\;\;\text{ (given) }\;
∴    △ACD  ∼△BCA(AA   postulates)   \therefore\;\;\triangle ACD\;\sim\triangle BCA (\text{AA}\;\text{ postulates) }\;
