2. Lesson 3-5 Proving Lines Parallel Objectives: Recognize angle conditions that occur with parallel lines and prove that two lines are parallel based on the angle relationships. Monday, October 26, 2009

3. Postulates and Theorems Postulate 3.4 – If two lines in a plane are cut by a transversal so that corresponding angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel. Parallel Postulate – If there is a line and a point not on the line, then there exists exactly one line through the point that is parallel to the given line Theorem 3.5 - If two lines in a plane are cut by a transversal so that a pair of alternate exterior angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel.

4. Theorem 3.6 - If two lines in a plane are cut by a transversal so that a pair of consecutive interior angles are supplementary, then the lines are parallel Theorem 3.7 - If two lines in a plane are cut by a transversal so that a pair of alternate interior angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel Theorem 3.8 – In a plane, if two lines are perpendicular to the same line, then they are parallel.
