Question
In the figure shown, line t intersects lines l and k. Which additional piece of information is sufficient to prove that lines l and k are parallel?
- x > 90
- w < 90
- w = y
- y = z
The correct answer is: y = z
From the statement, corresponding angles are equal if and only if the lines are parallel.
To prove the lines l & k are parallel, it is sufficient to show the corresponding angles are equal i.e ye = ze.
