This contradicts the given statement that 2D is not congruent to ZE. Therefore the assumption is false, and 2D and ZE are not both right angles. 36. Assume r- IIs. Since angles 1 and 2 are alternate interior angles, they are congruent. This contradicts the given. So the assumption is false and ris not parallel to s. 37. Assume 21= 22. Zand 22 forma linear pair by definition of linear pair. A linear pair is supplementary by the linear pair postulate. Since angles 1 and 2 are congruent and supplementary they are right angles. Since perpendicular lines form right angles, line t is perpendicular to k. This is a contradiction of the given, therefore the assumption is false and 21 is not congruent to 22. 38. Assume t 1 k. Angles 1 and 2 are right angles because perpendicular lines form right angles. Angle 1 is congruent to angle 2 because all right angles are congruent. This contradicts the given statement, so the assumption is false. 39. Assume a I b. Angles 2 and 3 are consecutive interior angles. Consecutive interior angles are supplementary. This contradicts the given, so a is not parallel tob. 40. Assume a || b. Angles 1 and 3 are corresponding angles, so they are congruent. Angles 3 and 4 are vertical angles so they are also congruent. Angle 1 is congruent to angle 4 by the transitive property. This contradicts the given, soa is not parallel to b.
