Given: ΔABC, where AB = BC Prove: m∠BAC = m∠BCA Statement Reason 1. Let ΔABC be an isosceles triangle with AB = BC. given 2. Create point D on side so bisects ∠ABC. constructing an angle bisector 3. M∠ABD = m∠CBD definition of angle bisector 4. BD = BD Reflexive Property of Equality 5. ΔABD ≅ ΔCBD 6. M∠BAC = m∠BCA Corresponding angles of congruent triangles have equal measures. What is the reason for statement 5 in this proof? A. ASA B. SSS C. AAS D. SAS

On traditional maps, earth is represented in a flat plane, or by euclidean geometry. however, a globe is a more accurate model that comes from elliptical geometry. how does a globe represent the fact that there are no parallel lines in elliptical geometry? the equator is not parallel to any other latitudinal lines. the north and south poles are never connected by a geodesic. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles never intersect. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles intersect at both of the poles.
