Chapter 3 Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
2
3-2 Angles Formed by Parallel Lines and Transversals
3
Definitions Transversal Line: A line that cuts across two or more (usually parallel) lines Alternate-Interior Where a transversal crosses two (usually parallel) lines. Each pair of these angles are inside the parallel lines, and on opposite sides of the transversal Alternate-Exterior Angles: Where a transversal crosses two (usually parallel) lines. Each pair of these angles are outside the parallel lines, and on opposite sides of the transversal Same-Side Interior Angles: where a transversal crosses two (usually parallel) lines. Each pair of interior angles are inside the parallel lines, and on the same side of the transversal Corresponding Angles: angles that occupy the same relative position at each intersection where a straight line crosses two others. If the two lines are parallel, the corresponding angles are equal.

3-3 Proving Lines Parallel
7
Definition If two parallel lines (p) are cut by a transversal, then the pairs of same side interior angles are supplementary (q). Converse. Also if 2 lines are cut by a transversal so that a pair of same side interior angles are supplementary (q), then the lines will come out to be parallel (p).
8
Characteristics If corresponding angles are congruent, then lines are parallel. If alternate-interior angles are congruent, then lines are parallel. If alternate-exterior angles are congruent, then lines are parallel. If same-side interior angles are supplementary, then lines are parallel.

3-4 Perpendicular Lines
11
Definition A line is perpendicular to another if it meets or crosses it at right angles (90°). Perpendicular means “at right angle”. A line meeting another at the right angle, or 90° is said to be perpendicular to it.
12
Characteristics Its part of a parallel line.
Perpendicular lines cross to form 90° angles at the intersection. If two non-vertical lines in the same plane intersect at a right angle then they are said to be perpendicular.

3-5 Slopes of Lines By “Lady Mutombo”
15
Definitions The slope of a line is a number that shows/determines how steep it is. Slope – A surface of which one end or side is higher than another; a rising or falling surface Line - A long, narrow mark that never ends

Characteristics (X1, Y1) & (X2, Y2) Formula : M= (Y2 – Y1)/(X2 – X1)

3-6 Slopes of Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
19
Definitions Slope of Parallel Lines: Since slope is a measure of the angle of a line from the horizontal, and since parallel lines must have the same angle, then parallel lines have the same slope — and lines with the same slope are parallel. Perpendicular lines are a bit more complicated. - Slope of Perpendicular Lines: Lines whose slopes are negative reciprocals of one another. The lines intersect to form right angles. Negative reciprocals are two numbers that when they are multiplied together have product of -1.
20
Characteristics Parallel Lines have same slopes
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite reciprocals
