Unit 1 Angles formed by parallel lines. Standards MCC8G1-5
The angles created when Parallel Lines Are Cut By A Transversal: Alternate Interior Angles (congruent) Alternate Exterior Angles (congruent) Corresponding Angles (congruent) Vertical Angles (congruent) Consecutive Interior Angles (sum to 180°) Supplementary Angles (sum to 180°)
Similar Triangles If two triangles have two congruent angle measures, then the triangles are similar. 45° 50°
Exterior Angles of a Triangle An exterior angle of a triangle is formed by any side of a triangle and the extension of its adjacent side. The Exterior Angle Theorem states that An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles.
Adapted from the Arizona Department of Education Show that m ∠ 3 + m ∠ 4 + m ∠ 5 = 180˚, given that lines l and m are parallel lines and t 1 & t 2 are transversals. Find the m ∠ a, m ∠ b, and the m ∠ c if line n and segment yz are parallel. n
