If two lines intersect prove that the vertically opposite angles are equal

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To prove that vertically opposite angles are equal when two lines intersect, let's follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Lines and Angles**: - Let the two intersecting lines be \( AB \) and \( CD \), intersecting at point \( O \). - The angles formed at the intersection are \( \angle 1 \), \( \angle 2 \), \( \angle 3 \), and \( \angle 4 \). Here, \( \angle 1 \) and \( \angle 2 \) are vertically opposite angles, as well as \( \angle 3 \) and \( \angle 4 \). ...
