Question 637224: How would I solve this proof?
(The picture shows an angle with A being the vertex, B being the bottom ray, and C being the top ray.)
GIVEN: line AB is congruent to line DE, line AC is congruent to line DF, and line BC is congruent to line EF
PROVE: angle D is congruent to angle A
I understand that angle D is congruent to angle A, but I have trouble figuring out which theorems and postulates to use to prove it and how a one statement leads to the next (figuring out how I should order my statements).
Thank you so much for your help!

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
It would help if you would describe the relationship between points D, E, and F to the rest of the diagram.
Also lines cannot be congruent. Line segments can be congruent.
B and C are not rays. B and C are points. AB and AC could be rays starting at A and going through B or C.
I really recommend you go back to the very beginning of your Geometry book so that you can properly learn the vocabulary. Otherwise, you are never going to be able to effectively communicate what you mean when you ask for help.
