Conjectures are simply opinions derived from incomplete information.
Complete the blanks with the following statements
- Linear pair postulate
- Definition of supplementary angles
- [tex]\mathbf{m\angle ACB + 45 = 180^o}[/tex].
- Subtraction property
- [tex]\mathbf{m\angle ACB}[/tex] is obtuse.
The given parameter is:
[tex]\mathbf{m\angle BCD = 45^o}[/tex]
For two angles to be supplementary, the following must be true
- The angles must be adjacent angles (i.e. next to one another)
- They must add up to 180 degrees
So, the first two blanks would be completed using:
- Linear pair postulate
- Definition of supplementary angles
By substitution property, we can substitute [tex]\mathbf{m\angle BCD = 45^o}[/tex] in [tex]\mathbf{m\angle ACB + m\angle BCD = 180}[/tex]
So, the next blank will be completed with: [tex]\mathbf{m\angle ACB + 45 = 180}[/tex]
If 45 is subtracted from both sides of the equation, we get [tex]\mathbf{m\angle ACB = 135}[/tex]
So, the next blank will be completed with: Subtraction property of inequality
Angles that are between 90 and 180 degrees are obtuse angles.
Because [tex]\mathbf{m\angle ACB = 135}[/tex], the last blank will be completed with: [tex]\mathbf{m\angle ACB}[/tex] is obtuse.
