Section 5.3 Congruent Angles Associated with Parallel Lines. The Parallel Postulate. Through a point not on a line there is exactly one parallel to the given line. Euclidean Geometry treats it as a truth. Hyperbolic Geometry was discovered by trying to prove the parallel postulate.

The Parallel Postulate • Through a point not on a line there is exactly one parallel to the given line.
Euclidean Geometry treats it as a truth. • Hyperbolic Geometry was discovered by trying to prove the parallel postulate. • Spherical Geometry was discovered as another case. • We could not go to the moon without Hyperbolic Geometry.
Theorem 37: If two lines ||, then each pair of alternate interior angles are congruent. 1 3 4 2 <1 and <2, <3 and <4
Theorem 38: If two parallel linesare cut by a transversal then any pair of angles formed are either congruent or supplementary. 1 2 1 3 4 5 6 7 8
Six Theorems about Parallel Lines • Th39: || lines => alt. ext. <s = • Th40: || lines => corr. <s = • Th41: || lines => same side int. <s supp • Th42: || lines =>same side ext.<s supp • Th43: In a plane, if a line is | to one of two || lines, it is | to the other. • Th44: Transitive Prop of || Lines If two lines are || to a third line, they are || to each other.

Isosceles Trapezoid • A trapezoid is a four sided figure with one set of parallel sides. • An isosceles trapezoid is a trapezoid with legs congruent.
