Answer 1

use the symmetric and transitive properties of congruence

Explanation:

(1) ∠ABC ≅ ∠DEF and ∠GHI ≅ ∠DEF; given

(2) ∠DEF ≅ ∠GHI; symmetric property of congruence

(3) ∠ABC ≅ ∠GHI; transitive property of congruence (QED)

_____

Additional comment

The transitive property says if A≅B and B≅C, then A≅C. We used the symmetric property to swap sides of the congruence symbol with DEF and GHI to put the statement in the form to match the transitive property.

You will note we used the form ...

(statement number) statement; reason

with statement and reason separated by a semicolon.
