URGENT: Given: Line segment N M is parallel to line segment P O. and Angle 1 is-congruent-to angle 3
Prove: Line segment N M is parallel to line segment N O.

4 lines are connected. Line segment L M connects to line segment M N to form angle 1. Line segment M N connects to line segment N O to form angle 2. Line segment N O connects to line segment O P to form angle 3.

A 2-column table has 5 rows. Column 1 is labeled statements with the entries line segment N M is parallel to line segment P O, angle 2 is-congruent-to angle 3, angle 1 is-congruent-to angle 3, angle 1 is-congruent-to angle 2, line segment L M is parallel to line segment N O.

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.

proportions are fractions that equal to each other. so if two fractions are the same, they are proportional.

let's check the answers to see if they are proportional.

question a is not proportional because you can't turn 1.5/3 to 3/9. if you try to multiply 1.5/3 by 2 or 3, you wont get 3/9. it's impossible to make the fractions the same.

question b is not proportional because you can't turn 22/33 to 4/6. 33 can't go into 6.

question c is proportional because when you multiply 2 and 3 by 71, you would get 142/213, and those fractions equal to each other

question d is proportional because when you divide 14 and 7 by 2, you would end up with 7/3.5, and those fractions equal to each other.
