Warm Up Lesson Presentation Lesson Quiz: Holt Mcdougal Geometry Holt Geometry Holt Mcdougal Geometry

The document discusses angles formed by parallel lines and transversals. It provides examples of using the corresponding angles postulate and theorems about alternate interior angles, alternate exterior angles, and same-side interior angles to find the measures of unknown angles. The objective is to prove and use theorems about the angles formed when parallel lines are cut by a transversal.

Example 1: Using the Corresponding Angles
Postulate

Find each angle measure.


A. mECF
x = 70 Corr. s Post.
mECF = 70°

B. mDCE
5x = 4x + 22 Corr. s Post.
x = 22 Subtract 4x from both sides.
mDCE = 5x
= 5(22) Substitute 22 for x.
= 110°

Find mQRS.

x = 118 Corr. s Post.

mQRS + x = 180° Def. of Linear Pair


mQRS = 180° – x Subtract x from both sides.
= 180° – 118° Substitute 118° for x.
= 62°

Helpful Hint
If a transversal is perpendicular to
two parallel lines, all eight angles are
congruent.

Remember that postulates are statements


that are accepted without proof.
Since the Corresponding Angles Postulate is
given as a postulate, it can be used to
prove the next three theorems.

Example 2: Finding Angle Measures

Find each angle measure.

A. mEDG
mEDG = 75° Alt. Ext. s Thm.

B. mBDG
x – 30° = 75° Alt. Ext. s Thm.
x = 105 Add 30 to both sides.
mBDG = 105°

Find mABD.

2x + 10° = 3x – 15° Alt. Int. s Thm.

x = 25 Subtract 2x and add 15 to


both sides.
mABD = 2(25) + 10 = 60° Substitute 25 for x.

Example 3: Music Application
Find x and y in the diagram.

By the Alternate Interior Angles


Theorem, (5x + 4y)° = 55°.

By the Corresponding Angles


Postulate, (5x + 5y)° = 60°.

5x + 5y = 60 Subtract the first equation


–(5x + 4y = 55) from the second equation.
y=5
Substitute 5 for y in 5x + 5y =
5x + 5(5) = 60
60. Simplify and solve for x.
x = 7, y = 5

Find the measures of the acute angles in the


diagram.
By the Alternate Exterior Angles
Theorem, (25x + 5y)° = 125°.
By the Corresponding Angles
Postulate, (25x + 4y)° = 120°.

An acute angle will be 180° – 125°, or 55°.

The other acute angle will be 180° – 120°, or 60°.
