Given: ABCD is a parallelogram. Prove: ∠A and ∠D are supplementary.

Parallelogram A B C D is shown.

By the definition of a parallelogram, AB∥DC. AD is a transversal between these sides, so ∠A and ∠D are
angles. Because AB and DC are
, the same-side interior angles must be
by the same-side interior angles theorem. Therefore, ∠A and ∠D are supplementary.

Step-by-step explanation:

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

notice that the equation you are given has -2 (negative 2) on the right side, not 2. when you subtract 5 from a number n, you are finding the difference between the number and 5.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.
