Short Answer

Copy everything shown and write a two-column proof.

Given: m1=m2;

m3=m4;

Prove: mSRT=mSTR

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1. Apply the addition property of algebra.

If a=b and c=d, then a+c=b+d.

m1+m3=m2+m4

Step 2. Angle addition postulate.

From the given figure, it can be observed that some of m1 and m3 gives mSRT, that is m2+m4=mSTR.

From the given figure, it can be observed that some of m2 and m4 gives mSTR, that is m2+m4=mSTR.

Step 3. Apply substitution property.

Substitute mSRT for m1+m3 and mSTR for m2+m4 in step 1.

m1+m3=m2+m4mSRT=mSTR

Step 4. Write a two-column proof.

Write a two-column proof with the help of the above-mentioned steps.
