Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related GEO.36 Choose an efficient proof strategy skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

The theorem to prove is biconditional: Two lines cut by a transversal are parallel if and only if the same-side interior angles are supplementary. Which proof plan is most efficient?

AProve only one direction because if and only if statements need just one implication.

BUse a counterexample because biconditionals are always false.

CUse the tangent-secant theorem.

DProve both directions separately: the parallel-lines theorem and its converse.

Solution & Explanation:A biconditional proof needs both the statement and its converse. One direction starts with parallel lines; the other starts with supplementary same-side interior angles.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Points A(0,0), B(4,0), C(5,3), and D(0,3) form quadrilateral ABCD. The goal is to prove ABCD is not a parallelogram. Which strategy is most efficient?

AUse the definition of square to prove all sides congruent.

BUse the tangent-radius theorem.

CUse a coordinate countercheck: AB is parallel to CD, but AD is vertical while BC has slope 3, so the other opposite sides are not parallel.

DUse AA similarity to prove every quadrilateral is a parallelogram.

Solution & Explanation:A parallelogram must have both pairs of opposite sides parallel. Showing one pair of opposite sides is not parallel disproves that classification.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Triangles ABC and DEF have AB/DE = AC/DF = 4/7 and angle A congruent to angle D. The known angle is included between the proportional sides. Which strategy proves the triangles similar?

AUse SAS congruence because the ratios are equal.

BUse SAS similarity.

CUse HL congruence because 4/7 is a hypotenuse-leg ratio.

DUse a counterexample because no side ratio can prove similarity.

Solution & Explanation:Two pairs of proportional sides and the included congruent angle match the SAS Similarity Theorem.
