For JKL and XYZ, use the following statement: "If ∠J ≅ ∠X and ∠K ≅ ∠Y, then JKL ∼ XYZ." (1) Name the postulate or theorem that justifies the statement. (2) Write the converse of the statement. Is the converse true or false?

Write the converse of the conditional statement. Decide whether it is true or false. If two angles are vertical angles, then they are congruent.
Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
Parallel Lines and Transversals
Write the converse, the inverse, and the contrapositive of each statement. When possible, classify the statement as true or false. Two angles are complementary if the sum of their measures is $90^{\circ}$
Parallel Lines
Indirect Proof
Tell whether each statement is true or false. Then write the converse and tell whether it is true or false. If $\angle A \cong \angle B,$ then $m \angle A=m \angle B$
