Let ABC be any triangle. Draw line DE, which passes through point A, parallel to __________ with a compass and straightedge. According to the Angle Addition Postulate ∡DAC + ∡CAB + ∡BAE = ∡DAE. ∡DAC is congruent to ∡BCA by______________________. ∡BAE is congruent to ____________ by the same theorem. Substitution allows me to replace ∡DAC with ∡BCA and ∡BAE with ∡ABC in the equation. Therefore, __________________________= ∡DAE. By definition of a straight angle, ∡DAE measures ____________. Consequently, the three angles of ABC (BCA, CAB, and ABC) measure 180° by ___________.

2. Fill in the missing blanks below to prove that the Sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°.

i need help, what are supposed to go in the blanks? are the theorems supposed to go there? i need to know. :(

Let ABC be any triangle. Draw line DE, which passes through point A, parallel to __________ can you draw it ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i cant :( lthough that would be really helpful. im not good with drawing these things. would you mnd walking me through this? :( @jayzdd

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jayzdd can you tell me if im right? imm not sure|dw:1445976789671:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@tanya123 whered you go :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Let me draw this out real quick, ok.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am going to number the blanks from 1 to 6, k?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1. perpendicular bisector

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

One sec.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

kk

Im waiting for an answer from a friend, she is much better at this, and then you won't get it wrong on my account. Bc I really want you to get a good grade. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks! thats very nice of you! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

np.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Aw, you didn't have to give me a medal! Thank you, anyways! :) I would fan you, but Im already ur fan. LOL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

XD ofcourse i gotta!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

XDDD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

By definition of a straight angle, angle DAE measures 180 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6. by Triangle Angle-Sum Theorem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Im trying to answer as much as I know, from the top of my head.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you know what the TAST is? ^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It states that the sum of a triangle's angles always = 180.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats what it means? would the triangle be dividd in angles? and have to add up to 180 degrees?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You don't need to divide anything.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh lol im still trying to decipher this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know, all I could c was all of the angle sides, I almost didn't want to help. But I'm not that kind of person so.. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My friend is working on it right now!! You'll have your answers soon! Sorry for the wait my friend.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its fine~ :) thank you so much! i highly appreciate it :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, so I figured out something. You drew it wrong, so scratch the perpendicular bisector. The way you should have drawn it is so:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH i see what ya did there :o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1445982899807:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

LIKE THIS?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, w/o the extra line on the bottom.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1445983048706:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you know how to figure the rest out? I can send you a list of theorems and postulates to fill in the blanks with.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you pleae? i can try, would you stay and see if im right? lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure, but I will be working on my science at the same time so... :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

undertandable :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I hope that helps!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks! ill try and fill in the blanks with these
