Which of the following statements must be true about this diagram? Check all that apply. A. m1 + m2 = m4 B. m1 + m2 = m3 C. m4 is greater than m2 D. m4 is greater than m1 E. m3 is greater than m2 F. m2 + m3 = m4

@whpalmer4 help plz
Okay, let's look at them one by one: A) m1 + m2 = m4 Think back to the previous problem. m3 = 180-m4, right? So the sum of the angles = m1+m2 + m3 = 180 m1 + m2 + (180-m4) = 180 m1 + m2 + (180 - m4) - (180-m4) = 180 - (180-m4) m1 + m2 = m4
so A is the only answer or is there more
B) given what we found about m3 and m4 in A), is it possible for m4 to equal m3? That's the only way m1 + m2 = m3 and m1+ m2 = m4. They aren't equal in the drawing, but could you draw a triangle where they were? It could be true, but it doesn't have to be.
r u sure cuz A says m <1+m<2=m<4
Well, look at the diagram from the previous problem. Was it true there, or did m3 = 92 and m4 = 88?
Anyhow, this is how you have to reason about these questions, I'm not going to do it for you...
the answer was a,c,d
i got it right
Good job!
