What is the definition of a proof

What is an argument that begins with known facts, proceeds from there through a series of logical deductions, and ends with the thing you're trying to prove.

A parallel line 

What is lines that lie on the same plane and never intersect. They are always equidistant (of equal distance) from each other.

Let ABC be a triangle and A'C' a segment parallel to AC. What can you say about triangles ABC and A'BC'?

What is A'C' is parallel to AC, angles BA'C' and BAC are congruent. Also angles BC'A' and BCA are congruent. Since the two triangles have two corresponding congruent angles, they are similar.
