Parallel Lines and Transversals

Parallel Lines Two lines are said to be parallel if(i) they both lie in the same plane, and,(ii) they do not intersect (or cross each other)

Transversal A third line that crosses a pair of parallel lines on a slant As the transversal crosses the two parallel lines, eight angles are formed

Draw this in your notes

∠1 = ∠3 = ∠5 = ∠7 and ∠2 = ∠4 = ∠6 = ∠8

Linear PairsPairs of adjacent angles are supplementary (always add up to 180o) , as you can see from the figure. Thus ∠ 1 + ∠ 2 = 180o , ∠ 2 + ∠ 3 = 180o , ∠ 3 + ∠ 4 = 180o , ∠ 5 + ∠ 6 = 180o , etc.

Corresponding Angles

Angles in the same relative position around the two intersection points are called corresponding angles . Thus ∠ 1 and ∠ 5 are corresponding angles, as are ∠ 4 and ∠ 8,∠ 2 and ∠ 6, and also ∠ 3 and ∠ 7. Corresponding angles are congruent (same angle measure).

Alternate Interior Angles

Alternate sides of the transversalInside the parallel lines∠3 and ∠5 are called alternate interior angles. ∠4 and ∠6 are also alternate interior angles. Alternate interior angles are congruent.

Alternate Exterior Angles

Alternate sides of the transversalOutside the parallel lines∠2 and ∠8 are called alternate exterior angles. ∠1 and ∠7 are also alternate exterior angles. Alternate exterior angles are congruent.

Vertical Angles When two lines cross they form four angles.∠ 1 and ∠ 3 are said to be vertical angles ∠ 2 and ∠ 4 also form vertical angles.Vertical angles are congruent. Thus ∠ 1 = ∠ 3 and

∠ 2 = ∠ 4

Determine the values of angles A, B, C,

and D, in the figure below. Assume that the horizontal lines are

parallel.
