Question
tv || ik and qs || ik. complete the proof that ( mangle tuw + mangle prq = 180^circ ).
diagram: lines ( overleftrightarrow{tv} ) (t upward, v downward), ( overleftrightarrow{ik} ) (i upward, k downward), ( overleftrightarrow{qs} ) (q upward, s downward), and transversal ( overleftrightarrow{wp} ) (w left, p right) intersecting ( overleftrightarrow{tv} ) at u, ( overleftrightarrow{ik} ) at j, ( overleftrightarrow{qs} ) at r.
| statement | reason |
|---|---|
| 2. ( overleftrightarrow{qs} parallel overleftrightarrow{ik} ) | given |
| 3. ( angle tuw cong angle ijw ) | corresponding angles theorem |
| 4. ( mangle ijw + mangle prq = 180^circ ) | blank |
| 5. ( mangle tuw + mangle prq = 180^circ ) | substitution |
Step1: Identify the relationship between lines
Since \(\overleftrightarrow{TV} \parallel \overleftrightarrow{IK}\) and \(\overleftrightarrow{QS} \parallel \overleftrightarrow{IK}\), by the Transitive Property of Parallel Lines, \(\overleftrightarrow{TV} \parallel \overleftrightarrow{QS}\). Now, look at \(\angle IJW\) and \(\angle PRQ\).
Step2: Determine the angle relationship
\(\overleftrightarrow{WJPR}\) is a transversal cutting the parallel lines \(\overleftrightarrow{IK}\) (or \(\overleftrightarrow{TV}\) and \(\overleftrightarrow{QS}\)). \(\angle IJW\) and \(\angle PRQ\) are same - side interior angles. By the Same - Side Interior Angles Theorem, if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the same - side interior angles are supplementary. So, \(m\angle IJW + m\angle PRQ=180^{\circ}\) because \(\overleftrightarrow{IK} \parallel \overleftrightarrow{QS}\) (given) and \(\overleftrightarrow{WJPR}\) is a transversal, so same - side interior angles are supplementary.
