I only
II only
I and II
II and III
Explanation
Correct answer: B.
Choice B is correct. In the figure, intersects line and , and alternate interior angles are both marked . It follows that is parallel to line . It’s given that line is parallel to line , so is also parallel to line . Thus, the following angles also have measure : , , , and . Triangles and each have two angles with measure , so triangles and are similar. It’s also given that , so . It follows that . Triangles and each have one angle with measure and share , so triangles and are similar. Since , it follows that , so . Substituting for in statement I yields . It's given that . Substituting for and for in the equation yields , or . Thus, statement I is not true. Since , it follows that , or . Therefore, statement II must be true. Substituting for , for , and for in statement III yields , or . Thus, statement III is not true. Therefore, statement II only must be true.
