Parallel Lines & Transversals

This document discusses parallel lines and transversals. [1] It defines parallel lines and introduces the symbol || to indicate parallel lines. [2] It defines a transversal as a line that intersects two or more coplanar lines. [3] When a transversal cuts parallel lines, it forms eight angles that can be categorized into corresponding angles, alternate angles, and interior angles. The properties of these angle pairs are discussed.

not intersect?

Parallel Lines

The symbol || is used to indicate parallel lines.

AB || CD
A slash through the parallel symbol || indicates
the lines are not parallel.

Angles formed by parallel lines and transversal

8 no. of Angles are formed

n
Three types of Angles formed by parallel lines
and transversal

1.Corresponding angles
2.Alternate angles
3.Interior angles
Pairs of angles formed out of these angles

1.Corresponding angles
<d, <h
<a, <e
<c, <g
<b, <f

When one pairs of corresponding angle


is congruent, then all the pairs of
corresponding angles are congruent.

If <d <h
Then <a <e
<c <g
<b <f
Pairs of angles formed out of these angles

2. Alternate angles
<c, <e
<b, <h
<a, <g
<d, <f

When one pairs of alternate angle is


congruent, then all the pairs of
alternate angles are congruent.

If <b <h
Then <c <e
<a <g
<d <f
Pairs of angles formed out of these angles

3. Interior Angles

<c, <h
<e, <b

When one pairs of interior angle is


supplementary, then all the pairs of
interior angles are supplementary.

If <c + <h = 180O


Then <e + <b = 180O
Theorem on interior angle

If two parallel lines intersected by a transversal, the


interior angles on either side of the transversal are
supplementary.

Given: line m II line n.


l is transversal.

To prove: <a + <c = 180O


& <b + <d = 180O
Theorem on corresponding angle

The corresponding angle formed by a transversal of


two parallel lines are of equal measure

Given: line m II line n.


l is transversal.

To prove: <a = <b


Theorem on alternate angle

The alternate angle formed by a transversal of two


parallel lines are of equal measure

Given: line m II line n.


l is transversal.

To prove: <a = <b
