Algebra.Com's Answer #567375 by jim_thompson5910(35256)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! You wrote \"In the figure below XZ is parallel to YZ\", but you have this figure\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " ![]() \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "where XZ and YZ both meet at point Z, so there's no way \"XZ is parallel to YZ\" is true. There's a contradiction here. \n" ); document.write( " |
