Can you see other pairs of corresponding angles here? After watching this video, you will be prepared to find missing angles in scenarios where parallel lines are cut by a transversal. Let's show this visually. 5 A video intended for math students in the 8th grade Recommended for students who are 13-14 years old. Now it's time for some practice before they do a shopping. Learn on the go with worksheets to print out – combined with the accompanying videos, these worksheets create a complete learning unit. Before watching this video, you should already be familiar with parallel lines, complementary, supplementary, vertical, and adjacent angles. The lesson begins with the definition of parallel lines and transversals. It's time to go back to the drawing stump. Can you see another pair of alternate interior angles? Angles 2 and 6 are also corresponding angles. Corresponding angles are in the SAME position around their respective vertices and there are FOUR such pairs.
That means the measure of angle 2 equals the measure of angle 6, the measure of angle 3 equals the measure of angle 7, and the measure of angle 4 equals the measure of angle 8. Can you see any other angles that are also 60 degrees? That means angle 5 is also 60 degrees. Alternate EXTERIOR angles are on alternate sides of the transversal and EXTERIOR to the parallel lines and there are also two such pairs. The raccoons are trying to corner the market on food scraps, angling for a night-time feast! And angle 6 must be equal to angle 2 because they are corresponding angles. Start your free trial quickly and easily, and have fun improving your grades!
On their nightly food run, the three raccoons crashed their shopping cart... AGAIN. If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, alternate exterior angles are always congruent. They can then use their knowledge of corresponding angles, alternate interior angles, and alternate exterior angles to find the measures for ALL the angles along that transversal. We just looked at alternate interior angles, but we also have pairs of angles that are called alternate EXTERIOR angles.
Common Core Standard(s) in focus: 8. It concludes with using congruent angles pairs to fill in missing measures. Boost your confidence in class by studying before tests and mock tests with our fun exercises. 24-hour help provided by teachers who are always there to assist when you need it. Now we know all of the angles around this intersection, but what about the angles at the other intersection? These lines are called TRANSVERSALS. Transcript Angles of Parallel Lines Cut by Transversals. All the HORIZONTAL roads are parallel lines. Learn about parallel lines, transversals and their angles by helping the raccoons practice their sharp nighttime maneuvers! We can use congruent angle pairs to fill in the measures for THESE angles as well.
They DON'T intersect. We already know that angles 4 and 6 are both 120 degrees, but is it ALWAYS the case that such angles are congruent? And since angles 2 and 4 are vertical, angle 4 must also be 120 degrees. That's because angle 1 and angle 3 are vertical angles, and vertical angles are always equal in measure. Do we have enough information to determine the measure of angle 2? 1 and 7 are a pair of alternate exterior angles and so are 2 and 8. So are angles 3 and 7 and angles 4 and 8. When parallel lines are cut by a transversal, congruent angle pairs are created. They decide to practice going around the sharp corners and tight angles during the day, before they get their loot. Well, THAT was definitely a TURN for the worse! We are going to use angle 2 to help us compare the two angles. After this lesson you will understand that pairs of congruent angles are formed when parallel lines are cut by a transversal. That means you only have to know the measure of one angle from the pair, and you automatically know the measure of the other! Since angles 1 and 2 are angles on a line, they sum to 180 degrees.
Notice that the measure of angle 1 equals the measure of angle 7 and the same is true for angles 2 and 8.
