PLEASE HELP ME!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Given that ab is parallel to cd, that means 1 + 2 = 180 by the definition of supplementary angles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1 = 3 and 2 = 4 from the vertical angles theorem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3 = 5 from the alternate interior angles theorem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

therefore, if 2 = 4 and 1= 3 = 5, then 4 and 5 are supplementary, proving that same-side interior angles are supplementary

OMG! Thanks so much! You are a lifesaver! :D
