To prove that the ray opposite to the bisector of one of the angles formed by two intersecting lines bisects the vertically opposite angle, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Configuration Let two straight lines intersect at point O, forming angles ∠AOB, ∠BOC, ∠COD, and ∠DOA. Assume that ray OP is the bisector of angle ∠AOB. We need to prove that ray OQ, which is opposite to OP, bisects the angle ∠COD. ### Step 2: Define the Angles Let: - ∠AOB = angle 1 ...
