OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok

OpenStudy (tyteen4a03):

To prove that A and D is congruent (assume all units are degrees): A + C = 180 (int < supp, AB//CD) C + D = 180 (int < supp, AC//BD) Since A + C = C + D, A = D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@tyteen4a03 what's int.?

OpenStudy (tyteen4a03):

Interior

OpenStudy (anonymous):

//= parallel?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

also is this the transitive property?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@tyteen4a03

OpenStudy (tyteen4a03):

@dpgreen Yes, // = parallel, and the transitive property was used in the proof.
