Proof: Given WX congruent to YZ, ZW congruent to XY

[CANDYCANE12]

I would appreciate help on the following proof:

Given: Segment WX is congruent to segment YZ; segment ZW is congruent to segment XY.

Note: This is from the Houghton-Mifflin book with the orange cover.

You have posted two "givens", but have neglected to include what you are to prove. Also, if there is any graphic that goes along with this exercise, it would almost certainly be helpful if you posted it, or at least described it fully.

Note: There are hundreds, if not thousands, of math books currently and recently in print, including scores published by Houghton-Mifflin. Naturally, none of us owns every possible text. This is why it is requested that students post the entire exercise and its instructions.

It should be noted that we cannot teach courses here. If your class did not cover proof techniques, then you could try this "Ask Dr. Math" article. But you may need to look into hiring a tutor, and working a few hours a week to get caught up on this background material.

Thank you.
