Lines k and m intersect. Angle 1 and angle 2 are vertical angles, and angle 3 is adjacent to both of them, so that angle 1 and angle 3 together form a straight angle and angle 2 and angle 3 together form a straight angle. The proof below shows that angle 1 is congruent to angle 2. Match each statement with the justification that permits it.
