Given: Quadrilateral ABCD with _ AB ≅ _ CD , _ AD ≅ _ BC , and diagonal _ BD is drawn Prove: ∠BDC ≅ ∠ABD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent. this means that the quadrilateral in question is a parallelogram. this means that the opposite angles are equal.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so that the answer or no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no not yet. we have only proved ABC = ADC

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but since AB and DC are parallel to each other, the opposite angles of the diagonal going through two parallel lines are congruent therefore ABD = BDC

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then the angle are congruent by alternate interiot angles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so then thats all

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanxz
