substitution property
addition property
subtraction property
reflexive property
given
given: \\( \angle 1 \\) and \\( \angle 2 \\) are supplementary
\\( m\angle 1 = 112^{\circ} \\)
prove: \\( m\angle 2 = 68^{\circ} \\)
- \\( \angle 1 \\) and \\( \angle 2 \\) are supplementary
- \\( m\angle 1 = 112^{\circ} \\)
- \\( m\angle 1 + m\angle 2 = 180^{\circ} \\)
- \\( 112^{\circ}+m\angle 2 = 180^{\circ} \\)
- \\( m\angle 2 = 68^{\circ} \\)
Step1: State the given information
- \( \angle1\) and \( \angle2\) are supplementary - Given
- \( m\angle1 = 112^{\circ}\) - Given
Step2: Use the definition of supplementary angles
- \( m\angle1 + m\angle2=180^{\circ}\) - Definition of Supplementary Angles
Step3: Substitute the value of \(m\angle1\)
- \( 112^{\circ}+m\angle2 = 180^{\circ}\) - Substitution Property
Step4: Solve for \(m\angle2\)
- \( m\angle2=68^{\circ}\) - Subtraction Property (Subtract \(112^{\circ}\) from both sides of \(112^{\circ}+m\angle2 = 180^{\circ}\), so \(m\angle2=180^{\circ}- 112^{\circ}=68^{\circ}\))
