If a line is parallel to one side of a triangle then we know that the _________________ angles are ______ and
since the two triangles share an _________ we know that the ___________ are ________ b/c of_________.
Since the parallel line intersects the other two sides at the same rate the sides (not the parallel lines)___________
into equal ___________ .
Corollary to Side-Splitter Theorem
If three parallel lines intersect two transversals, then _______________________________________
