Mackenzie wrote the following paragraph proof for the Vertical Angles Theorem: Line segment NT intersects line segment MR forming four angles. Angles 1 and 3 are vertical angles. Angles 2 and 4 are vertical angles. The sum of angle 1 and angle 4 and the sum of angle 3 and angle 4 are each equal to 180 degrees by the definition of supplementary angles. The sum of angle 1 and angle 4 is equal to the sum of angle 3 and angle 4 _________________. Angle 1 is equal to angle 3 by the subtraction property of equality. Which phrase completes the proof? by construction using a straightedge by the definition of a perpendicular bisector by the transitive property of equality. by the vertical angles theorem
