| Question 300736:  I need major help on how to answer these questions and what they are. Here is the info...
 * The slash / represents a fraction bar and division. For example, one half = 1/2.
 * The notation sqrt( ) is used to denote the square root of a number.
 
 To answer some of the following questions you will need to refer to the figures below:
 Figure 1: The three horizontal lines are parallel.
 Figure 3: The two horizontal lines are parallel.
 Figure 7: JM and JP are chords of the circle. JK is a diameter.
 
 Figure 8: GH and JK are chords of the circle.
 
 Use Figure 3 below for the following proof:
 Given: Lines a and b are cut by the transversal f, and m ang 1 + m ang 3 = 180°.
 Prove: lines a and b are parallel.
 1. m ang 1 + m ang 3 = 180o : Given
 2. m ang 3 + m ang 5 = 180° : Definition of straight angle
 3. m ang 1 + m ang 3 = m ang 3 + m ang 5 : __________
 4. m ang 1 = m ang 5 : __________
 5. Lines a and b are parallel: __________
 
 Here are the figures that go with some of the questions:

 Thank you so much! :( this is just a study guide (ungraded but counted as an incomplete if not done.
