Name the property of congruence that justifies this statement: if angle W is congruent to angle X and angle x is congruent to angle y then angle w is congruent to angle y
A transitive property
B reflexive property
C symmetric properly
D none of these

Transitive property of congruence says" If two segments or two angles are each congruent to a third segment or angle respectively, then they are congruent to each other".

For example if [tex]\overline{AB}=\overline{CD}[/tex] and [tex]\overline{CD}=\overline{EF}[/tex]

Then [tex]\overline{AB}=\overline{EF}[/tex]

or if [tex]\angle{A}=\angles{B}[/tex] and [tex]\angle{B}=\angles{C}[/tex]

Then [tex]\angle{A}=\angles{C}[tex]

Thus, if angle W is congruent to angle X and angle x is congruent to angle y then angle w is congruent to angle y by Transitive property of congruence.
