same - side interior angle theorem
given (lparallel m). prove (angle2) and (angle5) are supplementary.
statements: 1. (lparallel m); 2. (angle1=angle5); 3. (mangle1 = mangle5); 4. (angle1) and (angle2) are a linear pair; 5. (angle1) and (angle2) are supplementary; 6. (mangle1 + mangle2=180^{circ}); 7. (mangle5 + mangle2 = 180^{circ}); 8. (angle5) and (angle2) are supplementary.
reasons: 1. given; 2. to be filled; 3. definition of congruent angles; 4. definition of a linear pair; 5. linear pair postulate; 6. definition of supplementary angles; 7. to be filled; 8. definition of supplementary angles.
- which theorem completes reason 2? (a) a. alternate interior angle theorem b. corresponding angle theorem c. same - side interior angle theorem d. same - side exterior angle theorem e. alternate exterior angle theorem (b) what completes reason 7? a. definition of supplementary angle b. substitution property
(a) Since we are given two parallel lines \(l\) and \(m\) and we are going from the statement \(\angle1=\angle5\) (congruent angles), the theorem that justifies this when dealing with parallel - lines and angles in this position is the Corresponding Angle Theorem.
(b) We know that \(m\angle1 + m\angle2=180^{\circ}\) (from linear - pair postulate) and \(m\angle1 = m\angle5\). To get from \(m\angle1 + m\angle2=180^{\circ}\) to \(m\angle5 + m\angle2=180^{\circ}\), we use the Substitution Property.
