When two lines intersect, like the blades of a Explore 1 Exploring Angle Pairs Formed by Intersecting Linespair of scissors, a number of angle pairs are formed. You can find relationships between the measures of the angles in each pair.
Traverse through this huge assortment of transversal worksheets to acquaint 7th grade, 8th grade, and high school students with the properties of several angle pairs like the alternate angles, corresponding angles, same-side angles, etc., formed when a transversal cuts a pair of parallel lines. Our all-new resources facilitate a comprehensive practice of the two broad categories of angles: the interior and exterior angles (based on their position) and the congruent and supplementary angles (considering the properties they exhibit).

Familiarize students with the locations of alternate interior, alternate exterior, same-side interior, and same-side exterior angles formed by parallel lines being cut by a transversal, with this printable practice set.
Assess your understanding of exterior angles formed by parallel lines and transversal with these printable pdfs. Form an equation using the congruent or supplementary property that governs each angle pair, and solve it for the value of x.
With lots of practice, this set of pdf worksheets helps brush up your knowledge of the characteristics of the various types of angles formed within and outside the parallel lines when cut by a transversal.
The purpose of this Math Talk is to elicit strategies and understandings students have for determining the angle measures in pairs of intersecting lines or for pairs of angles that make a straight angle. These understandings help students develop fluency and will be helpful later in this lesson when students will need to be able to explain why vertical angles are congruent. In this activity, students have an opportunity to notice and make use of structure (MP7) when they identify supplementary angles.
Corresponding angles are pairs of angles formed by a line intersecting two parallel lines and creating angles that are in the same position with respect to the lines. All of the angles in this situation have measurements that are related. These are facts about the lines and the angles formed.
Parallel lines are two lines on a two-dimensional plane that never meet or cross. When a transversal passes through parallel lines, there are special properties about the angles that are formed that do not occur when the lines are not parallel. Notice the arrows on lines m and n towards the left. These arrows indicate that lines m and n are parallel.
In addition to the corresponding angles, there are other angles that are named when parallel lines are cut by a transversal. These angles are also named by their positions respective to the lines. Angles that are formed inside the parallel lines are called interior angles. Angles that are above the top parallel line as well as those that are below the bottom parallel line are called exterior angles.
When two lines are parallel and cut by a transversal all of the angles formed are either supplementary or equal to each other. Consider the alternate exterior angle pair of eq\angle /eq 1 and eq\angle /eq 8. One proof of this relationship between alternate exterior angles is provided.
When two parallel lines, which are lines that don't intersect, are crossed by a line called the transversal, the angles formed are either equal or supplementary to each other. The supplementary angles in this situation have a sum of 180 degrees because they form a straight angle. Special angle pairs are named according to the shared positions with respect to the lines.
An angle is formed when two rays aligned with one endpoint, meet at one point. This one point where two rays meet is called a vertex. A transversal line is a line that crosses or passes through two other lines. A straight angle, also called a flat angle, is formed by a straight line. Parallel lines are two lines on a two-dimensional plane that never meet or cross. Corresponding angles are formed when a transversal passes through two lines.
If there are two parallel lines and a transversal, eight angles are formed. The angles in the same position are corresponding and therefore equal. If the angle formed to the left of the transversal on top of the one parallel line is equal to 75 degrees, then the angle formed to the left on the transversal on the top of the other parallel line is also 75 degrees.
Let there be two parallel lines crossed by a transversal forming an angle, a, and an adjacent angle, b, that is below it. These two angles must be supplementary since they form a straight angle. An angle, c, is formed on the same side of the transversal as a and b and above the other parallel line. Angle c and angle b are supplementary because they are consecutive angles of a parallelogram. Angle a and angle c must be equal because they are both supplements of b. Therefore the corresponding angles a and c are equal.
