\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The basic idea here is to use the fact that PV is parallel to QM to show that angles 1 and 2 are supplementary (ie they add to 180 degrees). From there, you use substitution to show that angles 2 and 3 are also supplementary. Then you reverse the logical steps used beforehand to show that because angles 2 and 3 are supplementary, this means that LT must be parallel to MV.
