Diana and Joby wrote the following proofs to prove that vertical angles are congruent. Who is correct? Line segment NT intersects line segment MR, forming four angles. Angles 1 and 3 are vertical angles. Angles 2 and 4 are vertical angles.

Diana's Proof

Statement Justification

∠1 + ∠2 = 180° Definition of Supplementary Angles

∠1 + ∠4 = 180° Definition of Supplementary Angles

∠1 + ∠2 = ∠1 + ∠4 Transitive Property of Equality

Joby's Proof

Statement Justification

∠2 = ∠4 Vertical angles are congruent.

∠1 = ∠3 Vertical angles are congruent.

Vertical angles are congruent. Vertical Angle Theorem
