A line passes through point (-2, 5) and has a slope of 3. Points Alx, 3) and B(-2, y) lie on the line. The value of x is
, and the value of y is

Given: ae ≅ ce ; de ≅ be prove: abcd is a parallelogram. we have that ab || dc. by a similar argument used to prove that △aeb ≅ △ced, we can show that △ ≅ △ceb by. so, ∠cad ≅ ∠ by cpctc. therefore, ad || bc by the converse of the theorem. since both pair of opposite sides are parallel, quadrilateral abcd is a parallelogram.
