Answer: Step 6 : CPCTC

Explanation:

CPCTC states that corresponding part of the congruent triangles are congruent.

Here, Given: abcd is a quadrilateral,

In which ad ≅ bc and ad║bc

Prove : abcd is a parallelogram.


Statement Reason

1. ad ≅ bc; ad║bc 1. Given

2.∠cad and ∠acb are alternative angles 2. Definition of alternative angles

3. ∠cad≅∠acb 3. alternative angles are congruent

4. ac ≅ ac 4. Reflexive property

5.△cad ≅ △acb 5. SAS congruence postulate

6. .ab ≅ cd 6. CPCTC

7. abcd is a parallelogram 7. Parallelogram side theorem
