Pre-Algebra 5.2 Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
2
Complete each sentence. 1. Angles whose measures have a sum of 90° are _______________. 2. Vertical angles have equal measures, so they are ______________. 3. Angles whose measures have a sum of 180° are ______________. 4. A part of a line between two points is called a ____________. complementary congruent supplementary segment Warm Up
3
Learn to identify parallel and perpendicular lines and the angles formed by a transversal.
4
parallel lines perpendicular lines transversal Vocabulary
5
Parallel lines are two lines in a plane that never meet, like a set of perfectly straight, infinite train tracks. Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect to form 90° angles.
6
The railroad ties are transversals to the tracks. A transversal is a line that intersects any two or more other lines. Transversals to parallel lines have interesting properties. The tracks are parallel.
7
Measure the angles formed by the transversal and parallel lines. Which angles seem to be congruent? 1, 3, 5, and 7 all measure 150°. 2, 4, 6, and 8 all measure 30°. Example: Identifying Congruent Angles Formed by a Transversal

PROPERTIES OF TRANSVERSALS TO PARALLEL LINES If two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, the acute angles that are formed are all congruent, the obtuse angles are all congruent, and any acute angle is supplementary to any obtuse angle. If the transversal is perpendicular to the parallel lines, all of the angles formed are congruent 90° angles.
12
The symbol for parallel is ||. The symbol for perpendicular is . Writing Math
13
In the figure, line l || line m. Find the measure of the angle. A. 4 m 4 = 124° All obtuse angles in the figure are congruent. Example: Finding Angle Measures of Parallel Lines Cut by Transversals
14
B. 2 m2 + 124° = 180° 2 is supplementary to the angle 124°. m2 = 56° –124° In the figure, line l || line m. Find the measure of the angle. Example: Finding Angle Measures of Parallel Lines Cut by Transversals Continued
15
All acute angles in the figure are congruent. C. 6 m 6 = 56° In the figure, line l || line m. Find the measure of the angle. Example: Finding Angle Measures of Parallel Lines Cut by Transversals Continued

19
If two lines are intersected by a transversal and any of the angle pairs shown below are congruent, then the lines are parallel. This fact is used in the construction of parallel lines.
