Since p∥q, we can use the corresponding angles postulate to state the following

[tex]\angle2\cong\angle3[/tex]

Then, by the Vertical Angles Theorem

[tex]\angle1\cong\angle3[/tex]

Then, by the transitive property of congruence

[tex]\angle1\cong\angle2[/tex]

And this proves that alternate exterior angles are congruent.
