Help with paragraph proofs? Given: 1 and 2 are supplementary, and 2 and 3 are supplementary. Prove:1 is equal to 3 By the definition of supplementary angles, m1 + m2 = ______ (a) and m2 + m3 = ______ (b). Then m1 + m2 = m2 + m3 ______ (c). Subtract m2 from each side. You get m1 = _______ (d), or 1 _________ (e).
My answers are A: 180 B: 180 C D: m3 E: 3
@3mar
Peace be upon you.
Still did not get it?
I think it will be: C: substituting from previous equations
@triciaal
do you know what mean supplementary angles ?
Yes
write me please here
1 and 2 are supplementary => what about them ?
=> 1 +2 = 180 degrees yes ?
Yes
and given again that 2 + 3 = 180 degrees too yes ?
Yes
so 1 +2=180 2 +3 = 180 ------------ => 1+2 = 2+3 subtract 2 from both sides and will get 1 = 3 hope helped
I already knew that part. Thanks
ok. hope you understand it now good luck bye bye
She just want to know what is in the blank C, jhonyy9.
m1 = m3
after you subtract from both sides m2 you get this m1=m3
ok. ?
I understand that part too but that wasn't what I was asking for thank you for helping me though.
