Question

I would love help on my homework on proofs and I don't really understand them, so I would really love help on it. I will give you a medal for your help and appreciation.

Answer 3

start with what is literally given

Answer 4

got it #2

Answer 5

you tell me

Answer 6

definition of right angle right

Answer 7

yes or perpendicular lines

Answer 8

either one works in my opinion

Answer 9

oh wait, you would probably start off with perpendicular, the move to right angles

Answer 10

so perpendicular lines

Answer 11

yeah

Answer 12

3 is complementary angles

Answer 13

no that would be the definition of right angles

Answer 14

in statement 2, they use "right angles", so that's why it makes sense to have that reason in #3

Answer 15

definition of congruent angles for #4

Answer 16

that's for #5

Answer 17

4 is vertical angles

Answer 18

no look at step 3, and use that to figure out #4

Answer 19

corresponding angles

Answer 20

if a = b and c = b, then a = c

what property did I just use?

Answer 21

transitive property is #4

Answer 22

closer, but no

Answer 23

symmetric property

Answer 24

#4 is symmetric property

Answer 25

no, what's the idea that if x = 2 then 4x turns into 4*2

Answer 26

substitution property

Answer 27

bingo

Answer 28

4 is substitution property

Answer 29

6 is definition of parallel lines right

Answer 30

no

Answer 31

what is it then

Answer 32

definition of parallel then

Answer 33

look through your notes

Answer 34

how are angles 1 and 2 related? what type of angles are they?

Answer 35

how are angles 1 and 2 related? what type of angles are they?

Answer 36

Congruent

Answer 37

what else

Answer 38

and right angles

Answer 39

I mean #6 is explanatory it's parallel, because it has the parallel symbol

Answer 40

How is the definition of parallel or parallel lines not right

Answer 41

hint: 1 and 2 are corresponding angles

Answer 42

I see that 6 is corresponding angles

Answer 43

yes so if they are congruent, then how does that prove the lines are parallel?

Answer 44

the corresponding angles are equal if the lines are parallel

Answer 45

so am I still wrong or was I right?

Answer 46

basically the idea if the corresponding angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel

so this is using the converse of the corresponding angles postulate

Answer 47

6 is the converse of the corresponding angle postulate

Answer 48

yes
