I would really like help on this homework. You will get a Medal if you help me. The answer & explanation has to be correct and accurate, because my teacher said it has to be. ***The next section instructions are: Determine whether each statement is true or false. Justify your response with the appropriate postulate or theorem.***

11. angle 4 is congruent to angle 10 12. angle 4 is congruent to angle 6 13. measure angle 8 + measure angle 10 = 180 degrees 14. angle 4 is supplementary to angle 9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

11) True. Alternate Interior 12) True. Consecutive 13) False. There is no theorem. 14) False. They have like nothing to do with each other... soo...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They are consecutive interior angles. :/

OpenStudy (debbieg):

Yes they are, but that does not make them congruent. It makes them sum to 180.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, then they aren't >.< Sorry

OpenStudy (debbieg):

Nor is 4 congruent to 10, since those lines aren't parallel.

OpenStudy (debbieg):

Which is also why the last two are false.... they would be true if the lines were parallel.

OpenStudy (firejay5):

13 and 14 are false, because the lines aren't parallel

OpenStudy (debbieg):

All that said, I must say that it's a real turn-off when a question is prefaced with: "You will get a Medal if you help me. The answer & explanation has to be correct and accurate, because my teacher said it has to be." I don't pick a problem to help on in the interest of getting a medal (or because of a promise of one). And I don't think anyone intends to give anything other than a "correct and accurate" answer. You should want your answers to be correct and accurate, regardless of whether the teacher tells you it "has to be" (really - does a math teacher have to give special instructions that the answer should be "correct and accurate"??)
