Algebra.Com's Answer #328324 by cleomenius(959)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let lines AB and CD be parallel lines. \n" ); document.write( "Let transversal EF cross AB and CD. \n" ); document.write( "Let angle 1 and angle 2 be corresponding angles formed by EF crossing lines AB and CD. \n" ); document.write( "+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ \n" ); document.write( "++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ \n" ); document.write( "Statement: Angle 1 is congruent to angle 2. \n" ); document.write( "Reason: Theorem, if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then each pair of corresponding angles is congruent. \n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------------------------------------------------- \n" ); document.write( "Statement: 1/2 angle 1 = 1/2 angle 2 (They are congruent). \n" ); document.write( "Reason: Definition of Bisector. \n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- \n" ); document.write( "Statement: The bisectors of angles 1 and angle 2 are parallel. \n" ); document.write( "Reason. Theorem, if 2 lines cut be a tranversal form a pair of corresponding angles with the transversal, then the lines are parallel. \n" ); document.write( "Cleomenius. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
