To complete the proof that quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram, we can fill in the blank spaces as follows:

| Statements | Reasons |
|------------|---------|
| Quadrilateral A B C D with segment A D is congruent to segment B C, segment A B is congruent to segment D C. | Given |
| **Blank space 1:** angle D A C is congruent to angle B C A | **Reason:** Alternate Interior Angles Theorem |
| **Blank space 2:** angle D A C + angle D C A = 180 degrees | **Reason:** Linear Pair (if lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary) |
| **Blank space 3:** angle B C A + angle A B D = 180 degrees | **Reason:** Linear Pair (if lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary) |
| angle D A C is congruent to angle B C A, angle D C A is congruent to angle B A C | **Reason:** Given (from previous congruences) |
| **Blank space 4:** angle A D C is congruent to angle B C A | **Reason:** Corresponding Angles Postulate |
| **Blank space 5:** A B C D is a parallelogram | **Reason:** Definition of parallelogram |

With these completed blanks, the proof is structured to show that because pairs of alternate interior angles are congruent and both pairs of opposite sides are congruent, ABCD must be a parallelogram.
