Identify the type of angles. 1. 5, 7 corresponding ANSWER alternate interior ANSWER 2. 3, 6 3. 1, 8 alternate exterior ANSWER
The measure of three of the numbered angles is 120°. Identify the angles. Explain your reasoning. By the Corresponding Angles Postulate, m5=120°. Using the Vertical Angles Congruence Theorem, m4=120°. Because 4 and 8 are corresponding angles, by the Corresponding Angles Postulate, you know that m8 = 120°. EXAMPLE 1 Identify congruent angles SOLUTION
ALGEBRA Find the value of x. By the Vertical Angles Congruence Theorem, m4=115°. Lines aand bare parallel, so you can use the theorems about parallel lines. m4 + (x+5)° 180° = 115° + (x+5)° 180° = Substitute 115° for m4. x + 120 = 180 x = 60 EXAMPLE 2 Use properties of parallel lines SOLUTION Consecutive Interior Angles Theorem Combine like terms. Subtract 120 from each side.
Use the diagram. 1. If m 1 = 105°, find m 4, m 5, and m 8. Tell which postulate or theorem you use in each case. m 4 = m 5 = m 8 = ANSWER 105° 105° 105° for Examples 1 and 2 GUIDED PRACTICE Vertical Angles Congruence Theorem. Corresponding Angles Postulate. Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem
Use the diagram. 2. If m 3 = 68° and m 8 = (2x + 4)°, what is the value of x? Show your steps. 180 m 7 + m 8 = m 7 ANSWER 68 + 2x + 4 = 180 2x + 72 = 180 m 3 = 2x = 108 x = 54 for Examples 1 and 2 GUIDED PRACTICE
Prove that if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the pairs of alternate interior angles are congruent. Draw a diagram. Label a pair of alternate interior angles as 1 and 2. You are looking for an angle that is related to both 1 and 2. Notice that one angle is a vertical angle with 2 and a corresponding angle with 1. Label it 3. pq GIVEN : ∠ 1∠ 2 PROVE : EXAMPLE 3 Prove the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem SOLUTION
REASONS STATEMENTS 1. Given pq 1. Corresponding Angles Postulate 2. 2. 3∠ 2 1∠ 3 1∠ 2 Vertical Angles Congruence Theorem 3. 3. 4. 4. Transitive Property of Congruence EXAMPLE 3 Prove the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem
Science When sunlight enters a drop of rain, different colors of light leave the drop at different angles. This process is what makes a rainbow. For violet light, m2 =40°. What is m1? How do you know? EXAMPLE 4 Solve a real-world problem
Because the sun’s rays are parallel, 1 and 2 are alternate interior angles. By the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem, 12. By the definition of congruent angles, m1 = m2 =40°. EXAMPLE 4 Solve a real-world problem SOLUTION
3. In the proof in Example 3, if you use the third statement before the second statement, could you still prove the theorem? Explain. SAMPLE ANSWER Yes; 3 and 2 congruence is not dependent on the congruence of 1 and 3. for Examples 3 and 4 GUIDED PRACTICE
4. WHAT IF? Suppose the diagram in Example 4 shows yellow light leaving a drop of rain. Yellow light leaves the drop at an angle of 41°. What is m 1 in this case? How do you know? ANSWER 41°; 1 and 2 are alternate interior angles. By the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem, 12. By the definition of congruent angles, m1 = m2 =41°. for Examples 3 and 4 GUIDED PRACTICE
