Properties, Proofs, All that nasty stuff :( Help please...

If two angles are vertical, then they are congruent. If two angles are congruent, then they have the same measure. the law of syllogism allows us to draw what conclusions? 10If two angles are congruent, they are vertical 2)If<abc=<def, then they are vertical 3)If two angles are vertical, then they have the same measure. 4)If two angles have the same measure, they are vertical.

@jigglypuff314 help?

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

some angles can be not vertical angles and still be vertical. so that Disproves 1 and 4 and you don't know what "<abc" and "<def" are, so 2 Can't be right... so that leaves...

Number 1?

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

congruent angles don't have to be vertical angles like how a rectangle doesn't have to be a square so not 1 :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3 lol sorry

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

yep! :)

What is the conclusion to the statement "if two lines are skew, then they do not lie in the same plane."

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

The "if" part of a conditional statement is called the hypothesis, and the "then" part is called the conclusion.

Thanks

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

yw :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so they do not lie in the same place would be the conclusion?

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

yep :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alrigghhtu

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if p: two lines intersect and q: they share a common point, write ~p->~q as a conditional statement.

@Chooch146 any idea?

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

this link might help http://www.mathplanet.com/education/geometry/proof/if-then-statement (I have done geometry in a while >,< )

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

so... "If two lines do not intersect, then that do not have a common point"
