The figure below shows a straight line AB intersected by another straight line t: Write a paragraph to prove that the measure of angle 1 is equal to the measure of angle 3.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Extraordinaire plz plz help me I will give medal

OpenStudy (vhtran):

This should be easy, it would be difficult to write a paragraph about it though

OpenStudy (vhtran):

have you learned about postulates yet?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok so im trying I could do it paragraph but still tiny bit confused

OpenStudy (vhtran):

by using postulates you can conclude a simple question like this rather than going through such a hassle.

OpenStudy (vhtran):

same thing with 2 and 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok I see what youmean now so the answer is angle 1 and 3 are congruent to each other using the vertical angles postulate. because line AB intersected by another straight line

OpenStudy (vhtran):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (vhtran):

any time ^u^ if you need anymore help on postulates heres a sketch of my lecture notes in case you run into any trouble. |dw:1431990507150:dw| corresponding angles: 1 and 5 vertical angles: 2 and 3 alternate interior angle: 4 and 5 alternate exterior angle: 2 and 7 consecutive interior angle: 3 and 5

OpenStudy (vhtran):

shoot wrong drawing let me redraw that
