Question

What is the missing reason in step 8? Statements Reasons 1. circle M with inscribed ∠KJL and congruent radii JM and ML 1. given 2. △JML is isosceles 2. isos. △s have two congruent sides 3. m∠MJL = m∠MLJ 3. base ∠s of isos. △are ≅ and have = measures 4. m∠MJL + m∠MLJ = 2(m∠MJL) 4. substitution property 5. m∠KML = m∠MJL + m∠MLJ 5. measure of ext. ∠ equals sum of measures of remote int. ∠s of a △ 6. m∠KML =2(m∠MJL) 6. substitution property 7. 7. central ∠ of △ and intercepted arc have same measure 8. 8. ? 9. 9. multiplication property of equality reflexive property substitution property base angles theorem second corollary to the inscribed angles theorem

Answer 1

The answer is the substitution property
