Jake wants to prove the theorem that says that the measure of the quadrilateral's opposite angles add to 180. He knows that the measure of angle R is half the measure of are STU and that the measure of angle Tis half the measure of arc SRU. Which of the following is an appropriale step to prove that R+T180? Yes No Assume that the measure of arc STU is 140 and that the measure of arc SRU is 220. DO Assume that the measure of arcs STU and SRU add up to 360. Substitute 2 mcR for arc STU Substitute mT for arc SRU.
