For the parallelogram PQRS, the opposite lines are parallel, so PS || QR, and the diagonal QS is a transversal line that interprets both parallel lines, if you link both parallel lines using a Z shaped line, you will find the alternate interior angles formed by the transversal line:

Angle 4 and angle 3 are alternate interior angles, which means that they are equal.

So, the statement that is missing is that "Angle 4 is equal to Angle 3"

Which is the missing statementOptions are: Angle 1 is equal to Angle 6Angle 5 is equal-example-1
