Step1: Recall construction of angle bisector

The construction shown is of an angle - bisector. The arcs drawn from point \(A\) and the intersection of the arcs to form \(AD\) is the standard way to construct the angle bisector of \(\angle BAC\).

Step1: Set angles equal

Since \(\angle1\) and \(\angle3\) are vertical angles, \(m\angle1=m\angle3\). So, we set up the equation \(4x + 2=5x-25\).

Step2: Solve for \(x\)

Subtract \(4x\) from both sides: \(2=x - 25\). Then add 25 to both sides: \(x=27\).

Step1: Recall indirect proof

The first step of an indirect proof is to assume the opposite (negation) of the conclusion. The conditional is "If \(m\angle2 = 95\), then \(m\angle3 = 95\)". The opposite of the conclusion \(m\angle3 = 95\) is \(m\angle3
eq95\). We assume the negation of the conclusion while keeping the hypothesis. So the first - step of the indirect proof is to assume "If \(m\angle2 = 95\), then \(m\angle3
eq95\)" which is equivalent to assuming "If \(m\angle3
eq95\), then \(m\angle2
eq95\)" (contra - positive).

Answer:

A. the angle bisector of \(\angle BAC\)
