  1. Technology Your classmate constructs an angle. Then he constructs a ray from the vertex of the angle to a point in the interior of the angle. He measures all the angles formed. Then he moves the interior ray as shown below. What postulate do the two pictures support?

    Pictures show a 105 degree with a hand moving a ray inside it. The first picture has the interior ray creating 81 degrees and 24 degrees. The second picture has the interior ray creating 63 degrees and 42 degrees.
