Two Column Proof help? ;o @yummydum

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'll post the problems i need help on in a second. But I don't really understand how to do them at all... lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol....well quick cuz i gotta go :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you need to go you can<3 I don't need immediate help(: just whenever you have time

OpenStudy (anonymous):

post the question and ill get as much as i can :)....if i dnt finish ill do the rest later :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so....proof please :D :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Working on it l

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

http://prntscr.com/co9or

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this..is soo.....EASY :D:D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

omg i <3 geometry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OO: how? omg if you can help me you are GOD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no no...there is only one god...and he watches from above..im mereley one of his many imperfect creations :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, you are a boss then (:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol....thanks :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k so lets do this XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

XD yes >:3 soo. we begin with the given ones right? o:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

http://prntscr.com/co9vh also, am i doing this one right? & I also do not know what to put for the bottom row

OpenStudy (anonymous):

angle EGF=60 Given angle AGF=90 Given angle EGB is a straight angle EGF+AGF+AGB=180 Angle addition postulate 60+90+x=180 substitution property 150+x=180 combine like terms x=30 subtraction property AGB=30 substituiton property

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont remember how to prove the 3rd step :\

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but the rest is good :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the definition of a straight angle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:D thankyou so much! I will be tagging you if i run into any more trouble ^^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so for the second question u asked :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

adn the last row....lemme take a look :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

angle ABD is congruent to angle GEF alternate exterior angles are congruent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that one was already used though,? lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i fixed it :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

angle ABD is congruent to angle GEF alternate exterior angles are congruent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh! lol fail (:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

umm...im not sure i get the last one :$

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean u cud say tht CD is perpendicular to AE and GH is parallel to CD so therefore AG and AE are also perpendicular

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait, would it have something to do with GH being perpendicular to AF?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats what you have to prove....so since CD and AF are perpendicular and CD and GH are parallel, that kinda makes GH perpendicular to AF as well

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you get what im saying? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

kind of o: I'm just a little iffy on what to put in the blanks XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

me too...i mean i can explain it i just dont know what to put in the last two blanks :\

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so got anything??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not yet, I've been surfing through my fail-textbook

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if i had my textbook i cud probably find it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i dont

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm lucky I even have this textbook): when i got kicked out of school they forgot to ask for it back

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lemme see if i can get a friend on this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol WOW :O :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay!(: I will keep looking!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey @zepp ......wanna help out :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

there he/she is :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so heres the link to the proof she needs help with http://prntscr.com/co9vh .... last row

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I found the two column proof section

OpenStudy (anonymous):

great! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now found the perpendicular

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay i think i found something

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cool :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

theorem 3-11 In a plane, if a line is perpendicular to one of two parallel lines, then it is also perpendicular to the other.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i guess that still doesn't tell us what goes in the "reason" column

OpenStudy (anonymous):

BOOM!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no no thts the answer...I KNEW THERE WAS A THEOREM :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i put theorem 3-11? :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well in a 2 column proof you cant just name a theorem...so you just summerize the concept

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so you put any line parallel to another line who is perpendicular to a line is also perpendicular to that line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that makes little sense....but im sure you can re-word that :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay well..i head out now :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i hope i was helpful :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You were! Danke! Danke! :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ich will tag you if i run into any more two-column proof trouble ^^
