The complete two-column proof that proves that  [tex]l \parallel m[/tex] is:

Statement 1: [tex]\angle 2 $ and $ \angle 5[/tex] are supplementary.

Reason: Given

Statement 2: [tex]\angle 2 $ \cong $ \angle 3[/tex]

Reason: Vertical angles.

Statement 3: [tex]\angle 2 $ and $ \angle 5[/tex] are supplementary

Reason: Substitution Property

Statement 4: [tex]l \parallel m[/tex]

Reason: Converse of Same-Side Interior Angles Theorem

The referred diagram has been attached below. See attachment.

  • We need to prove that line l is parallel to m using a two-column proof.

  • On one side, you will have the statements, on the other side, you will have the reasons justifying each statement.

Thus:

Statement 1: [tex]\angle 2 $ and $ \angle 5[/tex] are supplementary.

Reason: Given (we have been told already).

Statement 2: [tex]\angle 2 $ \cong $ \angle 3[/tex]

Reason: Vertical angles. (angle 2 and angle 3 are vertically opposite each other, and are therefore congruent to each other because they are vertical angles.)

Statement 3: [tex]\angle 2 $ and $ \angle 5[/tex] are supplementary

Reason: Substitution Property (Since we have proven that  [tex]\angle 2 $ and $ \angle 5[/tex] are supplementary, and [tex]\angle 2 $ \cong $ \angle 3[/tex], then by the substitution property, [tex]\angle 3 $ and $ \angle 5[/tex] are supplementary.)

Statement 4: [tex]l \parallel m[/tex]

Reason: Converse of Same-Side Interior Angles Theorem (Since we have proven that  [tex]\angle 3 $ and $ \angle 5[/tex] are supplementary, and both angles lie on same side along the transversal and are within the two lines intercepted by the transversal, therefore the Converse of Same-Side Interior Angle Theorem states that lines l and m will be parallel.).

In summary, the complete two-column proof that proves that  [tex]l \parallel m[/tex] is:

Statement 1: [tex]\angle 2 $ and $ \angle 5[/tex] are supplementary.

Reason: Given

Statement 2: [tex]\angle 2 $ \cong $ \angle 3[/tex]

Reason: Vertical angles.

Statement 3: [tex]\angle 2 $ and $ \angle 5[/tex] are supplementary

Reason: Substitution Property

Statement 4: [tex]l \parallel m[/tex]

Reason: Converse of Same-Side Interior Angles Theorem
