Justify constructions

Problem

Tanya started with point C and line AB and constructed CE.
Line A B and point C not on the line. A circular arc centered at point A passes through point C and line A B. The intersection of the arc and line A B is labeled D. A circular arc centered at point C intersects a circular arc centered at point D. The intersection is labeled point E. A line passes through points C and E.
Which two statements, if true, guarantee that AB is parallel to CE?
