Worksheet Section 32 Angles and Parallel Lines
Objectives:
• Understand the parallel lines cut by a transversal theorem and it’s converse
• Find angle measures using the Theorem
• Use algebra to find unknown variable and angle measures involve parallel lines and transversals
• Use Auxiliary lines to find unknown angle measures
• corresponding angles
• alternate interior angles
• alternate exterior angles
Example:
In the figure, m∠2 = 75. Find the measures of the
remaining angles.
Example:
In the figure, m∠3 = 102. Find the measure of each
angle. Tell which postulate(s) or theorem(s) you used.
a. ∠5 b. ∠6
c. ∠11 d. ∠7
e. ∠15 f. ∠14
Practice
In the figure, m∠9 = 80 and m∠5 = 68. Find the measure
of each angle. Tell which postulate(s) or theorem(s) you used.
a. ∠12 b. ∠1
c. ∠4 d. ∠3
e. ∠7 f. ∠16
Algebra and Angle Measures
Algebra can be used to find unknown values in angles formed by a transversal and parallel lines.
Example:
If m∠1 = 3x + 15, m∠2 = 4x - 5, and m∠3 = 5y, find the
value of x and y.
Example:
