Draw line a through points A and B. Draw line b through point C and parallel to line a.

Since lines a and b are parallel, <)BAC = <)B'CA and <)ABC = <)BCA'.

It is obvious that <)B'CA + <)ACB + <)BCA' = 180 degrees.

Thus <)ABC + <)BCA + <)CAB = 180 degrees.

Lemma

If ABCD is a quadrilateral and <)CAB = <)DCA then AB and DC are parallel.

Proof

Assume to the contrary that AB and DC are not parallel.

Draw a line trough A and B and draw a line trough D and C.

These lines are not parallel so they cross at one point. Call this point E.

Notice that <)AEC is greater than 0.

Since <)CAB = <)DCA, <)CAE + <)ACE = 180 degrees.

Hence <)AEC + <)CAE + <)ACE is greater than 180 degrees.

Contradiction. This completes the proof.

Definition

Two Triangles ABC and A'B'C' are congruent if and only if

|AB| = |A'B'|, |AC| = |A'C'|, |BC| = |B'C'| and,

<)ABC = <)A'B'C', <)BCA = <)B'C'A', <)CAB = <)C'A'B'.

Pygmies do not plant their own , but they will work in them in exchange for food or tools
Lady_Fox [76]
I’m not sure where the question is here, but if it is a true or false, the pygmies do exchange with neighboring villages. They are hunters and gatherers, so rather than planting food, they gather. So this statement would be true
