Problem Analysis and Solution



The image contains four geometric proofs involving the Angle Addition Postulate. Each proof requires filling in the "Reasons" column for the given "Statements." Below, I will solve each problem step by step.

---

Problem 1:


#### Given: \( m\angle 1 = m\angle 3 \)
#### Prove: \( m\angle EFH = m\angle IFG \)

| Statements | Reasons |
|------------|---------|
| 1. \( m\angle 1 = m\angle 3 \) | 1. Given |
| 2. \( m\angle 1 + m\angle 2 = m\angle 2 + m\angle 3 \) | 2. Addition Property of Equality (Add \( m\angle 2 \) to both sides) |
| 3. \( m\angle 1 + m\angle 2 = m\angle EFH \) and \( m\angle 2 + m\angle 3 = m\angle IFG \) | 3. Angle Addition Postulate (Sum of adjacent angles forms a larger angle) |
| 4. \( m\angle EFH = m\angle IFG \) | 4. Substitution Property of Equality (Substitute from statements 2 and 3) |

---

Problem 2:


#### Given: \( m\angle PQR = 130^\circ \), \( m\angle PQS = 5x \), and \( m\angle SQR = 30^\circ \)
#### Prove: \( x = 20 \)

| Statements | Reasons |
|------------|---------|
| 1. \( m\angle PQR = 130^\circ \), \( m\angle PQS = 5x \), and \( m\angle SQR = 30^\circ \) | 1. Given |
| 2. \( m\angle PQR = m\angle PQS + m\angle SQR \) | 2. Angle Addition Postulate (Whole is the sum of its parts) |
| 3. \( 130 = 5x + 30 \) | 3. Substitution Property of Equality (Substitute the given values) |
| 4. \( 130 - 30 = 5x + 30 - 30 \) | 4. Subtraction Property of Equality (Subtract 30 from both sides) |
| 5. \( 100 = 5x \) | 5. Simplification |
| 6. \( \frac{100}{5} = \frac{5x}{5} \) | 6. Division Property of Equality (Divide both sides by 5) |
| 7. \( x = 20 \) | 7. Simplification |

---

Problem 3:


#### Given: \( m\angle GKI = m\angle HKJ \)
#### Prove: \( m\angle 3 = m\angle 5 \)

| Statements | Reasons |
|------------|---------|
| 1. \( m\angle GKI = m\angle HKJ \) | 1. Given |
| 2. \( m\angle 3 + m\angle 4 = m\angle GKI \) | 2. Angle Addition Postulate (Sum of adjacent angles forms a larger angle) |
| 3. \( m\angle 4 + m\angle 5 = m\angle HKJ \) | 3. Angle Addition Postulate (Sum of adjacent angles forms a larger angle) |
| 4. \( m\angle 3 + m\angle 4 = m\angle HKJ \) | 4. Substitution Property of Equality (Substitute \( m\angle GKI = m\angle HKJ \)) |
| 5. \( m\angle 3 + m\angle 4 = m\angle 4 + m\angle 5 \) | 5. Transitive Property of Equality (From statements 3 and 4) |
| 6. \( m\angle 3 = m\angle 5 \) | 6. Subtraction Property of Equality (Subtract \( m\angle 4 \) from both sides) |

---

Problem 4:


#### Given: \( m\angle JKL = m\angle MNO \) and \( m\angle 1 = m\angle 3 \)
#### Prove: \( m\angle 2 = m\angle 4 \)

| Statements | Reasons |
|------------|---------|
| 1. \( m\angle JKL = m\angle MNO \) and \( m\angle 1 = m\angle 3 \) | 1. Given |
| 2. \( m\angle 1 + m\angle 2 = m\angle JKL \) and \( m\angle 3 + m\angle 4 = m\angle MNO \) | 2. Angle Addition Postulate (Sum of adjacent angles forms a larger angle) |
| 3. \( m\angle 1 + m\angle 2 = m\angle MNO \) | 3. Substitution Property of Equality (Substitute \( m\angle JKL = m\angle MNO \)) |
| 4. \( m\angle 1 + m\angle 2 = m\angle 3 + m\angle 4 \) | 4. Substitution Property of Equality (Substitute \( m\angle 1 = m\angle 3 \)) |
| 5. \( m\angle 1 + m\angle 2 = m\angle 1 + m\angle 4 \) | 5. Transitive Property of Equality (From statements 4 and the given \( m\angle 1 = m\angle 3 \)) |
| 6. \( m\angle 2 = m\angle 4 \) | 6. Subtraction Property of Equality (Subtract \( m\angle 1 \) from both sides) |

Final Answer:


\[
\boxed{
\begin{array}{c}
\text{Problem 1: } m\angle EFH = m\angle IFG \\
\text{Problem 2: } x = 20 \\
\text{Problem 3: } m\angle 3 = m\angle 5 \\
\text{Problem 4: } m\angle 2 = m\angle 4
\end{array}
}
\]
