In this unit, we learned how to write proofs about congruence, similarity, and other geometric concepts. We learned how to construct some geometric figures with just a straightedge and compass. We also explored angle pair relationships, parallel lines cut by a transversal, triangles, quadrilaterals, proportionality in triangles and more! Here are a few resources to help you answer the questions below. Happy studying!!

adjacent
vertical angles
linear pair
complementary

Question 22
22.
Given: ∆ABC
Prove: m∠1 + m∠2 + m∠3 = 180° (This is the Triangle Sum Theorem)
Put the proof in the correct order.
2. Draw XY through C and parallel to AB.
m∠1 + m∠2 + m∠3 = 180° by substitution.
m∠4 + m∠2 + m∠5 = 180°because if adjacent angles form a straight angle, their sum is 180.
∠1 ≅ ∠4 and ∠3 ≅ ∠5 by the alternate interior angles theorem.
4. m∠1 = m∠4 and m∠3 = m∠5 because congruent angles have equal measures.
