Geometry Line Angles and Proofs! Please Help!

According to the given information, segment UV is parallel to segment WZ while angles SQU and VQT are vertical angles. Angle VQT is congruent to angle SQU by the Vertical Angles Theorem. Because angles SQU and WRS are corresponding angles, they are congruent according to the Corresponding Angles Postulate. Finally, angle VQT is congruent to angle WRS by the _____________________. Which Property of Equality accurately completes the proof? @Hero

Im gonna say subtraction.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

VQT = SQU and SQU = WRS therefore, VQT = WRS

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

what kind of property is it ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

transitive

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or reflexive?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

keep that table handy while doing proofs

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thank you :)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

transitive property of equality fits here based on previous flow of arguments

Thank you @ganeshie8

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
