Right Angle Theorem Lesson 4.3
Theorem 23:If two angles are both supplementary and congruent, then they are right angles. 2 1 Given: 1 2 Prove: 1 and 2 are right angles.
Paragraph Proof: Since 1 and 2 form a straight angle, they are supplementary.Therefore, m1 + m2 = 180°. Since 1 and 2 are congruent, we can use substitution to get the equation: m1 + m2 = 180° or m1 = 90°. Thus, 1 is a right angle and so is 2.
