A (convex) trapezoid $ABCD$ is good, if it is inscribed in a circle, sides $AB$ and $CD$ are the bases and $CD$ is shorter than $AB$. For a good trapezoid $ABCD$ the following terms are defined:
$\bullet$ The parallel to $AD$ passing through $B$ intersects the extension of side $CD$ at point $S$.
$\bullet$ The two tangents passing through $S$ on the circumircle of the trapezoid touch the circle at $E$ and $F$, where $E$ lies on the same side of the straight line $CD$ as $A$.
Give the simplest possible equivalent condition (expressed in side lengths and / or angles of the trapezoid) so that with a good trapezoid $ABCD$ the two angles $\angle BSE$ and $\angle FSC$ have the same measure.
