Angle Facts
1. If two lines are cut by a transversal and
corresponding angles are equal, then the lines are
parallel.
1. If parallel lines are cut by a transversal,
corresponding angles are equal. (This second part is
often called the Parallel Postulate. It tells us a
property that parallel lines have. The property
cannot be deduced from the definition of parallel
lines.)
Given a pair of lines π΄π΅ and πΆπ· in a plane (see the diagram below),
a third line πΈπΉ is called a transversal if it intersects π΄π΅ at a single
point and intersects πΆπ· at a single but different point. The two lines
π΄π΅ and πΆπ· are parallel if and only if the following types of angle
pairs are congruent or supplementary

auxiliary line
e. An ________________
is sometimes useful when solving for
unknown angles.
In this figure, we can use the auxiliary line to find the measures of β
π and β π (how?), then add the two measures together to find the
measure of β π.
What is the measure of β π?
π= ππ°
π= ππ°
ππ°
β πΎ = ______
Relevant Vocabulary
Alternate Interior Angles: Let line π be a transversal to lines πΏ
and π such that π intersects πΏ at point π and intersects π at
point π. Let π
be a point on πΏ, and π be a point on π such that
the points π
and π lie in opposite half-planes of π. Then the
angle β π
ππ and the angle β πππ are called alternate interior
angles of the transversal π with respect to π and πΏ.
Corresponding Angles: Let line π be a transversal to lines πΏ and
π. If β π₯ and β π¦ are alternate interior angles, and β π¦ and β π§ are
vertical angles, then β π₯ and β π§ are corresponding angles.
