question 4 of 5
select the correct answer.
given line segment \\(\overline{ac}\\) and line segment \\(\overline{bd}\\) intersect at o.
prove \\(\angle aob \cong \angle cod\\)
image of intersecting segments
since line segments \\(\overline{ac}\\) and line segments \\(\overline{bd}\\) intersect at o, \\(\angle aob\\) is supplementary to \\(\angle boc\\) and \\(\angle boc\\) is supplementary to \\(\angle cod\\) by the linear pair theorem.
which statement and reason best completes the proof?
- by the congruent supplements theorem, \\(\angle aob \cong \angle cod\\).
- by the congruent complements theorem, \\(\angle aob \cong \angle cod\\).
- by the substitution property of equality, \\(\angle aob \cong \angle cod\\).
- by the subtraction property of equality, \\(\angle aob \cong \angle cod\\).
The proof establishes that ∠AOB and ∠COD are both supplementary to the same angle ∠BOC. The congruent supplements theorem states that if two angles are supplementary to the same angle, they are congruent to each other. This matches the logical flow of the proof.
