The document discusses special angle pairs, including complementary, supplementary, vertical, adjacent, linear pairs, alternate interior, exterior, and corresponding angles, providing definitions and relationships among them. It explains how to measure angles and their properties, particularly when lines intersect or are crossed by a transversal. The document also includes a problem for identifying various angle pairs in a given figure.
1-5 Exploring Angle Pairs
- 2. Exploring Angle Pairs Students will be able to: Identify Special Angle Pairs and use their relationships to find angle measures. Key Vocabulary • Complementary and Supplementary angles • Vertical Angles • Adjacent Angles • Corresponding Angles • Linear Pair • Alternate Interior and Exterior Angles
- 3. Measuring Angles An angle is the measure of the turn between two rays that have a common end point. The rotation is measured in the counter- clockwise direction. • The two rays form the sides of an angle. • The point where two rays are meeting is called the vertex. • The angle is represented by a symbol along with a letter. A Sides Vertex
- 8. Measuring Angles A Linear Pair of angles is formed when two lines intersect each other. Two angles are Linear if they are adjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines. The angles A and B shown in the figure are adjacent angles and also a linear pair. A and B are linear AB
- 9. Measuring Angles When two coplanar lines are crossed by a 3rd line (called the transversal), then the angles formed on the opposite sides of the transversal are called Alternate Angles. • The pair of angles on the opposite side of the transversal but inside the two coplanar lines are Alternate Interior Angles (angles A and B in the figure). • The pair of angles on the opposite side of the transversal but outside the two coplanar lines are Alternate Exterior Angles (angles C and D in the figure). • If a transversal intersects two Parallel lines, then the alternate angles are congruent. A B D C A ≅ B and C ≅ D
- 10. Measuring Angles When two coplanar lines are crossed by a 3rd line (called the transversal), then the angles formed on the same sides of the transversal are called Corresponding Angles. • The angles A and B, and angles C and D are the pairs of corresponding angles. • If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then the corresponding angles are congruent. A B D C A ≅ B and C ≅ D
- 11. Measuring Angles Problem 1: Identify all the pairs of alternate, vertical and corresponding angles in the figure shown below. a e h b g c d f Alternate Angles: angles a and h, b and g, c and f, d and e Vertical Angles: angles a and d, b and c, e and h, g and f Corresponding Angles: angles a and e, c and g, b and f, d and h
