Revolt · Accepted Answer

We are given that XY is parallel to ZW. If XZ is a transversal that intercepts XY and ZW, angle and angle are alternate interior angles. Since XY is parallel to ZW, we know that these angles are . We : WZV; We are given that XY is parallel to ZW. If XZ is a transversal that intercepts XY and ZW, angle and angle are alternate interior angles. Since XY is parallel to ZW, we know that these angles are . We : congruent; We are given that XY is parallel to ZW. If XZ is a transversal that intercepts XY and ZW, angle and angle are alternate interior angles. Since XY is parallel to ZW, we know that these angles are . We : vertical; We are given that XY is parallel to ZW. If XZ is a transversal that intercepts XY and ZW, angle and angle are alternate interior angles. Since XY is parallel to ZW, we know that these angles are . We : AA
