Horizontal and parallel lines e and f are intersected by diagonal and parallel lines g and h. At the intersection of lines g and e, the bottom right angle is angle 2. At the intersection of lines h and e, the bottom right angle is angle 1. At the intersection of lines f and h, the top left angle is angle 3.
Statements Reasons
