Which is NOT equivalent to Euclid's 5th postulate? O a. Two parallel lines are equidistant. Ob. Given a line, a line parallel to it can be constructed. If a transversal intersects one of two parallel lines, then it must intersect the other. O d. In a triangle, the measure of the interior angles can only add up to 180 degrees.
