Answer:

The answer is A. Substitution

Explanation:

Looking at the previous proofs, you can see that:

∠Y≅∠4

∠Z≅∠6

∠X + ∠4 + ∠6 = 180°

Statement 5 then replaces ∠4 and ∠6 with ∠Y and ∠Z, respectively. Replacing it means that it was substituted with the GIVEN values by the previous statements.

The best answer is the Substitution.
