To complete the proof based on the given information that \( r \parallel s \) and \( \angle 1 \cong \angle 3 \), let's step through the statements and match them with the appropriate reasons.

Statements and Reasons:

  1. Statement: \( r \parallel s \)
    Reason: Given

  2. Statement: \( \angle 1 \cong \angle 3 \)
    Reason: Given

  3. Statement: \( \angle 1 \cong \angle 2 \)
    Reason: Corresponding Angles Postulate (since \( r \parallel s \) and \( \angle 1 \) and \( \angle 2 \) are corresponding angles)

  4. Statement: \( \angle 2 \cong \angle 3 \)
    Reason: Transitive Property of Congruence (because \( \angle 1 \cong \angle 2 \) and \( \angle 1 \cong \angle 3 \))

  5. Statement: \( p \parallel q \)
    Reason: Alternate Interior Angles Converse Theorem (since \( \angle 2 \) and \( \angle 3 \) are alternate interior angles)

Complete Proof Format:

  • \( r \parallel s \) — Given
  • \( \angle 1 \cong \angle 3 \) — Given
  • \( \angle 1 \cong \angle 2 \) — Corresponding Angles Postulate
  • \( \angle 2 \cong \angle 3 \) — Transitive Property of Congruence
  • \( p \parallel q \) — Alternate Interior Angles Converse Theorem

This sequence aligns with the properties related to parallel lines and congruent angles, completing the proof that \( p \parallel q \).
