Worksheet – Section 3-2 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

Parallel Lines and Angle Pairs

When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the following


pairs of angles are congruent.

• corresponding angles
• alternate interior angles
• alternate exterior angles

Also, consecutive interior angles are supplementary.

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.
