Respuesta :

Angle 4 and 5 are  alternate interior angles.

The answer is: Alternate Interior Angles Theorem

Answer:

The correct option is 2. ∠4≅∠5 by using alternate interior angles theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding Angles Postulate: If a transversal line intersect two parallel lines, then the corresponding angles are congruent.

Alternate Interior Angles Theorem: If a transversal line intersect two parallel lines, then the alternate interior angles are congruent.

Vertical Angles Theorem: If two lines intersect each other, then vertically opposite angles are congruent.

Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem: If a transversal line intersect two parallel lines, then the alternate exterior angles are congruent.

From the given figure it is clear that the m║n, t is transversal line, ∠4 and ∠5 are alternate interior angles.

∠4≅∠5              (By using alternate interior angles theorem)

Therefore the correct option is 2.
