Given: Lines p and q are parallel and r is a transversal.

Prove: ∠2 ≅ ∠7
Parallel lines p and q are cut by transversal r. On line p where it intersects with line r, 4 angles are created. Labeled clockwise, from the uppercase left, the angles are: 1, 2, 4, 3. On line q where it intersects with line r, 4 angles are created. Labeled clockwise, from the uppercase left, the angles are: 5, 6, 8, 7.

The statements that would complete the proof where ∠2 ≅ ∠7 by the transitive property are:

∠2 ≅ ∠3

∠3 ≅ ∠7

What is the Transitive Property?

The transitive property states that if x = y, and y = z, then x = z.

From the image given below, we have:

∠2 ≅ ∠3 because they are vertical angles which must be congruent.

∠3 ≅ ∠7 because corresponding angles are congruent.

Applying the transitive property, we can state that: ∠2 ≅ ∠7.

Therefore, the statements that would complete the proof are:

  • ∠2 ≅ ∠3
  • ∠3 ≅ ∠7
