Question

what type of proofs did they use?
candices proof is an indirect proof because
the last statement contradicts given information
each statement builds on logic from a previous statement
joels proof is
statements
candices proof
reasons

  1. ( mangle aox

eq mangle cox )

  1. by supposition
  2. ( angle aod cong angle cob )
  3. vertical angles theorem
  4. ( mangle aod = mangle cob )
  5. definition of congruence
  6. ( mangle aod + mangle aox

eq mangle cob + mangle cox )

  1. additional property of equality
  2. ( mangle aox

eq mangle cox )

  1. angle addition postulate

statements
joels proof
reasons

  1. ( mangle dox = mangle box )
  2. given
  3. ( mangle aod + mangle aox = mangle cob + mangle cox )
  4. angle addition postulate
  5. ( angle aod cong angle cob )
  6. vertical angles theorem
  7. ( mangle aod = mangle cob )
  8. definition of congruence
  9. ( mangle aox = mangle cox )
  10. subtraction property of equality

Explanation:

Answer:

Candice's proof is an indirect proof because the last statement contradicts given information. Joe's proof is a direct proof because each statement builds on logic from a previous statement.
