Complete the justification of the construction of the line perpendicular to a given line at a point on that line. Given: Line $m,$ with point $P$ Given: Line $m,$ with point $P$ $$egin{array}{l}frac{ ext { on } m}{P Q} cong overline{P R} ext { (by } \ ext { construction) } \overline{Q S} cong overline{R S} ext { (by }end{array}$$construction) Prove: $overleftrightarrow{S P} perp m$

Prove the Two Lines Parallel to a Third Line Theorem for three coplanar lines using a two-column proof. Show all work for your proof on your paper test. Given: line n and line p are parallel. Prove: line l is parallel to line p. Statements 1. line n is parallel to line p. 2. line n is parallel to line l. 3. line n and line l are coplanar. 4. line p and line l are coplanar. 5. If two lines are parallel and coplanar, then any line that is parallel to one of the lines is also parallel to the other line. 6. line l is parallel to line p. Reasons 1. Given 2. Given 3. Given 4. Given 5. Parallel Line Theorem 6. Conclusion from statements 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5
