To enable the completion of the proof that line <em>l</em> is parallel to line <em>m</em>, a
diagram showing the lines and their common transversal is attached.
The completed two column proof is presented as follows;
Statement
Reason
1. ∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary angles
1. Given
2. m∠1 + m∠2 = 180°
2. <u>Definition of supplementary ∠s</u>
3. ∠1 and ∠3 are supplementary angles
3. Exterior sides in opposite rays
4. <u>m∠1 + m∠3 = 180° </u>
4. <u>Definition of supplementary ∠s</u>
5. m∠1 + m∠2 = m∠1 + m∠3
5. <u>Transitive property of equality</u>
6. <u>m∠2 = m∠3 </u>
6. <u>Subtraction property of equality</u>
7. l ║ m
7. <u>Converse of alternate interior </u>
<u>angles postulate</u>
Reasons:
- Reason for statement 2: Supplementary angles are defined as two angles that sum up to 180°
- Reason for statement 3: Two angles are supplementary if the exterior sides that form each angle are opposite rays (rays that are drawn out infinitely in opposite direction but have the same endpoint)
- Statement 4: Mathematical expression of the sum of ∠1 and ∠3; Reason for statement 4 is the definition of supplementary angles
- Reason for statement 5: Transitive property of equality describes the property that if a number <em>x</em> = <em>y</em>, and <em>z </em>= <em>y</em>, then <em>x</em> = <em>z</em>.
- Statement 6: Subtracting m∠1 from both sides of the equation in statement 5. gives; m∠1 + m∠2 - m∠1 = m∠1 + m∠3 - m∠1 ⇒ m∠2 = m∠3. Reason for statement 6 is the subtraction property of equality
- Reason for statement 7: The converse of the alternate interior angles postulate states that if the alternate interior angles formed between two lines and a common transversal are congruent, the two lines are parallel.

I don’t understand your question, can you give more details please
Based on the maximum taxable amount for social security in 2009, and the social security tax rate, the social security tax that Larry paid was $7,347.
<h3>How much did Larry pay in social security taxes?</h3>
The total amount paid by Larry as Social security tax can be found as;
= Maximum amount allowable for social security tax x Social security tax rate
The social security tax rate was 6.2% not 62.2%.
The social security tax was therefore:
= 118,500 x 6.2%
= $7,347
