Question 256982: In segment ABCD,(which is shaped like a rhombus) angle A is greater than angle D. AB is greater than DC. Prove that AB is not parallel to DC.
I have tried many ways to answer this problem, and my most reasonable solution was the hinge theorem since we have recently learned this. I have to write an indirect proof, and I dont even know how to solve this problem. Oh, and on the rhombus, angle A is in the top left and angle D is in the bottom right. And B is on the top right and C is on the bottom left. There is a line going from B to C, dividing the rhombus into two triangles. Please help!

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since this is an indirect proof, you want to try and prove that the lines are parallel. If you want to discuss this thoroughly, then email me at justin.sheppard.tech@hotmail.com
