Step1: Identify the property for 11
If \(m\angle ABC = 90^{\circ}\), then \(\angle ABC\) is a right - angle by the definition of a right - angle. So the answer for 11 is E.
Step2: Identify the property for 12
If \(m\angle3 + m\angle4=180^{\circ}\), then \(\angle3\) and \(\angle4\) are supplementary angles by the definition of supplementary angles. So the answer for 12 is C.
Step3: Identify the property for 13
If \(m\angle PQR=m\angle RST\), then \(\angle PQR\cong\angle RST\) by the definition of congruence. So the answer for 13 is A.
Step4: Identify the property for 14
If \(\angle1\) and \(\angle2\) form a right - angle, then \(\angle1\) and \(\angle2\) are complementary angles by the definition of complementary angles. So the answer for 14 is B.
Step5: Identify the property for 15
If \(\angle X\) and \(\angle Y\) are supplementary and \(\angle X\) and \(\angle Z\) are supplementary, then \(\angle Y\cong\angle Z\) by the congruent supplements theorem. So the answer for 15 is L.
Step6: Identify the property for 16
If \(\angle J\) and \(\angle K\) are vertical angles, then \(\angle J\cong\angle K\) by the vertical angles theorem. So the answer for 16 is H.
Step7: Identify the property for 17
If \(\angle PQR\) and \(\angle STU\) are complementary angles, then \(m\angle PQR + m\angle STU = 90^{\circ}\) by the definition of complementary angles. So the answer for 17 is B.
Step8: Identify the property for 18
If \(\angle5\) and \(\angle6\) form a linear pair, then \(\angle5\) and \(\angle6\) are supplementary angles by the definition of a linear pair (supplement). So the answer for 18 is J.
Step9: Complete the proof for 19
- Given
- Definition of a linear pair
- Definition of supplementary angles (\(m\angle1 + m\angle2=180^{\circ}\) since \(\angle1\) and \(\angle2\) are supplementary)
- Given
- Definition of congruent angles (\(\angle1\cong\angle3\) implies \(m\angle1 = m\angle3\))
- Substitution property of equality (\(m\angle1\) replaced with \(m\angle3\) in \(m\angle1 + m\angle2 = 180^{\circ}\))
- Definition of supplementary angles (\(m\angle3 + m\angle2=180^{\circ}\) implies \(\angle2\) and \(\angle3\) are supplementary)
Step10: Complete the proof for 20
- Given
- Definition of a right - angle (\(\angle PQR\) is a right - angle implies \(m\angle PQR = 90^{\circ}\))
- Angle addition postulate (\(m\angle PQS+m\angle SQR=\angle PQR\))
- Substitution property of equality (\(m\angle PQR = 90^{\circ}\) into \(m\angle PQS + m\angle SQR=\angle PQR\))
- Definition of complementary angles (\(m\angle PQS + m\angle SQR = 90^{\circ}\) implies \(\angle PQS\) and \(\angle SQR\) are complementary)
- Given
- Congruent complements theorem (since \(\angle PQS\) and \(\angle SQR\) are complementary and \(\angle TQP\) and \(\angle SQR\) are complementary, then \(\angle PQS\cong\angle TQP\))
