intersecting at A. Show that line AP bisects the angle between them. (RHS rule).
✅ Quick Tips for Proofs: Always write: (1) Given, (2) To Prove, (3) Construction
(if any), (4) Proof. Use exactly 3 statements for congruence + the rule name (e.g., SAS). Q1:
$\angle C=70°$, so $\angle R=70°$ | Q2: SSA | Q3: 50° | Q4: CA | Q20: $\angle B=45°, \angle C=45°$.
