Daniel is constructing a fence that consists of parallel sides line AB and line EF. Complete the proof to explain how he can show that m∠GKB = 120° by filling in the missing justifications.
Statement Justification
line AB ∥ line EF
m∠ELJ = 120° Given
m∠ELJ + m∠ELK = 180° Linear Pair Postulate
m∠BKL + m∠GKB = 180° Linear Pair Postulate
m∠ELJ+m∠ELK=m∠BKL+m∠GKB Transitive Property
∠ELK ≅ ∠BKL 1.
m∠ELK = m∠BKL 2.
m∠ELJ + m∠ELK = m∠ELK + m∠GKB Substitution Property
m∠ELJ = m∠GKB Subtraction Property
m∠GKB = m∠ELJ Symmetric Property
m∠GKB = 120° Substitution
