Writing Paragraph Proofs nother proof format is a paragraph proof, which presents the statements and reasons of a proof as sentences in a paragraph. It uses words to explain the logical flow of the argument. Two intersecting lines form pairs of vertical angles and linear pairs. The Linear Pair Postulate formally states the relationship between linear pairs. You can use this postulate to prove the Vertical ngles ongruence Theorem. Postulate and Theorem Postulate.8 Linear Pair Postulate If two angles form a linear pair, then they are supplementary. and form a linear pair, so and are supplementary and m l + m = 80. Theorem.6 Vertical ngles ongruence Theorem Vertical angles are congruent. 4 Proof xample, p. 08, 4 Use the given paragraph proof to write a two-column proof of the Vertical ngles ongruence Theorem. Proving the Vertical ngles ongruence Theorem STUY TIP In paragraph proofs, transitional words such as so, then, and therefore help make the logic clear. JUSTIFYING STPS You can use information labeled in a diagram in your proof. 5 and 7 are vertical angles. Prove 5 7 Paragraph Proof 5 and 7 are vertical angles formed by intersecting lines. s shown in the diagram, 5 and 6 are a linear pair, and 6 and 7 are a linear pair. Then, by the Linear Pair Postulate, 5 and 6 are supplementary and 6 and 7 are supplementary. So, by the ongruent Supplements Theorem, 5 7.
