SOLUTION: Given: Line AB Is Perpendicular To line DE Prove: Angle ABD Is Congruent To Angle CBD

Question 997977: Given: Line AB Is Perpendicular To line DE
Prove: Angle ABD Is Congruent To Angle CBD

Since I can create a figure such that line segments AB and DE are indeed perpendicular, but angle ABD is NOT congruent to angle CBD, your assertion is not generally true and therefore cannot be proven.
