Given: p || q, and r || s.
2 answers:
Answer:
A.
Statement: ∠6 ≅ ∠14
Reason: For parallel lines cut by a transversal, corresponding angles are congruent.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the figure attached, a plot of the problem is shown.
Given p || q and r is a transversal which cut p and q, then ∠1 ≅ ∠5 and ∠2 ≅ ∠6.
Given r || s and q is a transversal which cut r and s, then ∠6 ≅ ∠14 and ∠8 ≅ ∠16.
From the picture we see that ∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary, that is, their addition is equal to 180º. ∠2 ≅ ∠6 and ∠6 ≅ ∠14, then ∠2 ≅ ∠14, in consequence ∠1 and ∠14 are supplementary.
