Proof of Conjecture 2: Vertical Angles Conjecture Angles 1 and 2 and angles 2 and 3 form linear pairs. According to the Linear Pair Conjecture, and . By substituting, we get . According to the subtraction property of equality, you can subtract angle 2 from both sides, so . Thus the vertical angles are congruent. Serra - Discovering Geometry Chapter 2: Reasoning in Geometry
