Provide reasons for the proof. Given: Line "m" is parallel to line "n". Prove: ∠1 is supplementary to ∠3. 
Picture: https://s.yimg.com/tr/i/8feaa7397dda48d68f6f1d32099d9bae_A.png
Statement: 
1. Line m is parallel to line n 
2. ∠1 ≅ ∠2 
3. m∠1 = m∠2 
4. ∠2 and ∠3 form a linear pair 
5. ∠2 is supplementary to ∠3 
6. m∠2 + m∠3 = 180* 
7. m∠1 + m∠3 =180* 
8. ∠1 is supplementary to ∠3 

Reasons: 
1. ? (my answer: Given) 
2. ? (my answer: congruent angles) 
3. ? (my answer: same side angle postulate) 
4. ? (my answer: angles equal to 180*) 
5. ? (my answer: def of supplementary) 
6. ? 
7. ? 
8. ? (my answer: Def of supplementary) 

Sadly IK that most of these will be wrong but I would really like to learn and better understand this as well add get a good grade. Can anyone help?

2. A transversal cutting parallel lines forms congruent corresponding angles 

3. Definition of congruent

4. A line standing on a line forms a linear pair

5. Linear Pair Theorem

6. Definition of Supplementary

7. Substitution of (3)  into (6)

8. Definition of Suppllementary
