Warm Up
Determine whether each statement is true or
false. If false, give a counterexample.
1. It two angles are complementary, then they are
not congruent.
2. If two angles are congruent to the same angle,
then they are congruent to each other.
3. Supplementary angles are congruent.
false; 45° and 45°
true
false; 60° and 120°
Write two-column proofs.
Prove geometric theorems by using
deductive reasoning.
Objectives

two-column proof
Vocabulary
When writing a proof, it is important to justify each
logical step with a reason. You can use symbols and
abbreviations, but they must be clear enough so that
anyone who reads your proof will understand them.
Hypothesis Conclusion
• Definitions
• Postulates
• Properties
• Theorems
Write a justification for
each step, given that ∠A
and ∠B are supplementary
and m∠A = 45°.
Example 1: Writing Justifications
1. ∠A and ∠B are supplementary.
m∠A = 45°
Given information
2. m∠A + m∠B = 180° Def. of supp ∠s
3. 45° + m∠B = 180° Subst. Prop of =
Steps 1, 2
4. m∠B = 135° Subtr. Prop of =
When a justification is based on more than the
previous step, you can note this after the reason,
as in Example 1 Step 3.
Helpful Hint

Write a justification
for each step, given

A theorem is any statement that you can
prove. Once you have proven a theorem, you
can use it as a reason in later proofs.

A geometric proof begins with Given and Prove
statements, which restate the hypothesis and
conclusion of the conjecture. In a two-column
proof, you list the steps of the proof in the left
column. You write the matching reason for each
step in the right column.
Fill in the blanks to complete the two-column
proof.
Given: XY
Prove: XY ≅ XY

Fill in the blanks to complete a two-column proof of one
case of the Congruent Supplements Theorem.
Given: ∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary, and
∠2 and ∠3 are supplementary.
Prove: ∠1 ≅ ∠3

∠2 and ∠3 are supp.
b. m∠1 + m∠2 = m∠2 + m∠3
c. Subtr. Prop. of =
d. ∠1 ≅ ∠3
Before you start writing a proof, you should plan
out your logic. Sometimes you will be given a plan
for a more challenging proof. This plan will detail
the major steps of the proof for you.
Geometry 201 unit 2.6
If a diagram for a proof is not provided, draw
your own and mark the given information on it.
But do not mark the information in the Prove
statement on it.
Helpful Hint
Use the given plan to write a two-column proof.
Example 3: Writing a Two-Column Proof from a Plan
Given: ∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary, and
∠1 ≅ ∠3
Prove: ∠3 and ∠2 are supplementary.
