Angles and Parallel Lines G.2a Angles and Parallel Lines
Transversal Definition: A line that intersects two or more lines in a plane at different points is called a transversal. When a transversal t intersects line n and m, eight angles of the following types are formed: Linear Pair & Vertical Angles still apply! + Corresponding Angles Alternate Angles Consecutive Angles t m n
Vertical Angles & Linear Pair Two angles that are opposite angles. Vertical angles are congruent. 1 4, 2 3, 5 8, 6 7 Supplementary angles that form a line (sum = 180) 1 & 2 , 2 & 4 , 4 &3, 3 & 1, 5 & 6, 6 & 8, 8 & 7, 7 & 5 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Angles and Parallel Lines If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the following pairs of angles are congruent. Corresponding angles Alternate interior angles Alternate exterior angles If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the following pairs of angles are supplementary. Consecutive interior angles Consecutive exterior angles Continued…..
Corresponding Angles Corresponding Angles: Two angles that occupy corresponding positions. 2 6, 1 5, 3 7, 4 8 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Alternate Angles Alternate Interior Angles: Two angles that lie between parallel lines on opposite sides of the transversal (but not a linear pair). Alternate Exterior Angles: Two angles that lie outside parallel lines on opposite sides of the transversal. 3 6, 4 5 2 7, 1 8 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Consecutive Angles Consecutive Interior Angles: Two angles that lie between parallel lines on the same sides of the transversal. Consecutive Exterior Angles: Two angles that lie outside parallel lines on the same sides of the transversal. m3 +m5 = 180º, m4 +m6 = 180º 1 2 m1 +m7 = 180º, m2 +m8 = 180º 3 4 5 6 7 8
Example: If line AB is parallel to line CD and s is parallel to t, find the measure of all the angles when m< 1 = 100°.
