Math 8 B unit 4 lesson 4

In this lesson, you will learn about the angle relationships formed by parallel lines and a transversal.

Specifically, you will learn about the following angle relationships:
1. Corresponding angles: When a transversal intersects two parallel lines, the corresponding angles that are formed are congruent.
2. Alternate interior angles: When a transversal intersects two parallel lines, the alternate interior angles that are formed are congruent.
3. Alternate exterior angles: When a transversal intersects two parallel lines, the alternate exterior angles that are formed are congruent.
4. Same-side interior angles: When a transversal intersects two parallel lines, the same-side interior angles that are formed are supplementary.

Through interactive activities and examples, you will practice identifying and applying these angle relationships in various contexts. You will also learn how to use these angle relationships to solve for unknown angle measures.

At the end of the lesson, you will have a solid understanding of the angle relationships formed by parallel lines and a transversal, and be able to apply this knowledge to solve problems involving angles.
