Prove that the opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent. Can someone please help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (zarkon):

\[\angle4+\angle3=180\] \[\angle2+\angle3=180\]

OpenStudy (zarkon):

do you agree?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (zarkon):

subtract the two equations

Parth (parthkohli):

Or you could use the diagonal as a transversal and then use the alternate-interior angle theorem.

OpenStudy (zarkon):

that would work, but you would need to use the alternate-interior angle theorem twice

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the given would be \[\angle 4 + \angle 3= 180 and \angle 2 + \angle 3=180\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have to write is as a paragraph poof, but it doesnt show the given

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so like a first step you know from a parallelogramm that the opposite sites are parallelles and congruents --- so from this resulte that these two diagonales are congruents so from this result that these opposite angles from what are frormed these two diagonales are congruents hope so much that is understandably good luck bye
