According to the given information, segment ab is parallel to segment dc and segment bc is parallel to segment ad.. using a straightedge, extend segment ab and place point p above point b. by the same reasoning, extend segment ad and place point t to the left of point a. angles bcd and pbc are congruent by the alternate interior angles theorem. angles pbc and bad are congruent by the corresponding angles theorem. by the property of equality, angles bcd and bad are congruent. angles abc and bat are congruent by the alternate interior theorem
